DescriptionParadise, a nationally acclaimed watercolorist, constantly explored new subject matter in his works. His 1934 painting Ocean Estuary is typical of his early works in that it is representational and follows regionalist trends seen in other artists. The dark tones of the building, fields, road, and more contrast with a gray sky and mirror waters of the titular estuary.On View
