This Picasso watercolor sculpture honors the influence of Pablo Picasso through layered portraiture and dimensional construction. The portrait emerges from vintage book pages mounted on a wooden milk carton, creating both painting and sculptural object.
I created this Picasso watercolor sculpture for a prestigious exhibition at the Portland Museum of Art in Maine, where I was selected among thousands of artists. Admiration for Picasso guided the process, leading me to work directly on physical book pages attached to the wooden structure.

The piece remained outdoors during a harsh Maine winter, allowing weather and time to shape the surface naturally. Subtle wear, softened edges, and tonal shifts developed organically. These elements now form part of the finished work and give the sculpture its aged character.
Transparent watercolor allows the printed words beneath the paint to remain visible. Gesture lines and loose washes define the portrait while open areas invite interpretation. The composition intentionally leaves portions unfinished so the viewer can complete the narrative.
This Picasso watercolor sculpture has remained in the studio for nearly a decade. The dimensional format, layered text, and weathered surface create a one of a kind original that bridges portrait, collage, and object. The work stands as both tribute and personal exploration inspired by Picasso’s lasting influence.

The Details
About the Original
This is an original, one of a kind painting, made by hand in my studio and signed by me. The medium, size and paper are listed in the description above.
Unless the description says it is framed, the painting comes unframed so you can choose framing that suits your space.
Every screen shows color a little differently, so the painting may look slightly different in person. If you would like more photos or a closer look at any detail, just ask.
Shipping & Returns
Shipping. I take a lot of pride in how my originals are packed. Every painting leaves my studio wrapped and reinforced in layers, flat or in rigid packaging made for fine art, so even if the box takes a beating on the way, the painting inside stays protected. Every original ships fully insured and with tracking, and shipping is free in the US on orders over $100.
If it arrives damaged. Contact me within 48 hours of delivery with photos of the box, the packaging and the painting. Please keep everything, the box, all of the packaging and the painting, exactly as it arrived, because the carrier needs to inspect all of it for the insurance claim. Once the claim is approved, I will make it right.
If it gets lost. Every original is insured, so if a painting goes missing, I file the claim with the carrier and work it out with you directly.
Returns. Because each original is one of a kind, originals are final sale unless they are damaged in shipping. If you have any doubts before buying, message me first and I am happy to send more photos or talk it through.
Caring for Your Painting
Keep your painting out of direct sunlight and away from humidity, and frame it behind glass with acid free materials. I wrote a full care guide for collectors in The Collector’s Guide.
