MWW Artwork of the Day (8/29/21) Charles Herbert Woodbury (American, 1864-1940) Breaking Wave (c. 1915-25) Watercolor & white gouache on off-white wove paper, 43.1 x 53.2 cm. Harvard Art Museums/Fogg Museum, Cambridge MA (Annie Swan Coburn Bequest)

Like Winslow Homer, another New England painter with an affinity for summers in Maine, Woodbury preferred "to work out his salvation with little help from others in his profession". He maintained a strong and consistent vision in his more than fifty years of professional life and became a master of compositions of the coast and sea. Woodbury’s many on-the-spot sketches and etchings produce a sense of motion through quick, sure-handed strokes. Seeing and understanding movement was fundamental to his art and teaching, and is reflected in his own maxim: “Paint in verbs, not nouns.” In the words of his son David, Woodbury "...painted what he saw, satisfied that what he saw was really there, all in proper relationship, checked and rechecked by endless reference to the real world".
