Romeo and Juliet Watercolor ACEO Art by Erika

My Master Tribute to Sir Dicksee's Romeo and Juliet (cropped). I chose this piece for Ebay watercolor group WNW master challenge with Love and Kisses theme because Romeo and Juliet is the ultimate symbol of love.

Sir Frank Bernard Dicksee was with us from 1853-1928. He was an English painters and illustrator known for portrait art. Much of his work have the qualities of pre-raphaelites in style.

Bouguereau and his romantic visions

"After Bouguereau's Psyche et L'Amour" ACEO 2.5x3.5 inches

This is a cropped version of my latest painting. You can visit my Ebay listings if you'd like to see the whole piece. I do enjoy Bouquereau's figurative paintings as he is so good about capturing a moment which is what I try to do with my art. He had an excellent command of the human proportions though I do suspect he did them a bit stylized as they all look so perfectly attractive.
