  • "The nature of watercolor - fluid, free-flowing and translucent - allowed [Scully] not only to create personal, minimal gestures, but also to see through them to the white paper ground. These watercolors are far from illustrations, but rather are liquidy, post-and-lintel-like brushstroke reductions that leak lights from between and underneath the brushstrokes."
    —Michael Auping
