"The
subject of my paintings often discover me. I find them in unexpected
places or they change direction while I'm exploring with pigment
and water. I am intrigued by the myriad of patterns and designs,
shadows and lights, shapes and forms all round me. Watercolor is
the most flexible and lustrous of all mediums and provides me with
possibilities." —May Belle Gaines
