Harry Carmean first explored the watercolor medium early in his career. In fact an entire show of his watercolors (mostly landscapes) was stolen in the early 1940’s which is one reason there are only a few of Carmean’s early watercolors in existence. Later, after starting to explore erotic themes in his drawings and prints in the 1990’s, Carmean began experimenting with watercolors after a forty year hiatus. Watercolors with their splashy, free quality, naturally complimented the erotic subject matter and they, brought out a “fun” side of Carmean which wasn’t readily seen in his more formal oil paintings as can be seen above.
