      Listed TX Artist Naomi Brotherton (1920-)

      Est: $300 - $600

      Framed watercolor of city scene by Texas artist Naomi Brotherton (1920 - ). As a commercial artist for many years studying under well known watercolorists of the time, notably Edgar Whitney, she discovered that she could teach. This discovery lead her to a career spanning more than thirty years, including workshop teaching from coast to coast. She is best known in the most recent years for her paintings of flowers, which comprise the main study in her workshops. Ms. Brotherton's palette is made up of staining pigments rather than the less transparent, opaque pigments, therefore her pigments are staining, non-sedimentary, and truly transparent. "Her test of a good watercolor painting is that the picture glows in the semi-darkness" (Marshall, p.7). She captures essences that are fresh, soft, and bright, and is known for night-scene paintings. A list of her warm color pigments for her palette consist of: Winsor red, brown madder, alizarin crimson, and New Gamboge (yellow); her cool pigments consist of Winsor green, Winsor blue, Indigo, Sepia, Winsor violet, and Antwerp blue. Brotherton is a signature member of Southwestern Watercolor Society (SWS), Texas Watercolor Society (TWS), National Watercolor Oklahoma (NWO), Associated Creative Artists of Dallas (ACA), and Western Federation of Watercolor Societies (WFWS). Her book, "Variations in Watercolor" (co-authored with Lois Marshall), was published by North Light in 1981. Her work and painting philosophies have been included in several other books and magazine articles. She has also won numerous awards, and her paintings hang in many public and private collections.
