epoca presents San Francisco Artist, William Stanisich, Watercolors and other works 
"The world’s magnificence has been enriched by a new beauty, the beauty of speed." -- Filippo Marinetti In brilliant colors complemented by velvety blacks and the virginal white of untouched paper, William Stanisich’s nocturnal street scenes are a paradoxical combination of speed and utter stillness.  In these virtuoso watercolors, every surface pictured, wet with rain, has been transformed into a vehicle for light. 
The paintings themselves tell their story, of color applied and moved; of how an artist can take water, paper, and pigment and make moving pictures--in more than one sense of the word.   Studying them, you can almost hear the sound of cars on wet pavement; of horns and engines, speeding away from you, into the night.
