Producing a watercolor may take several days, so Mihanovic will simply drop anchor and paint until the image is complete. A watercolor is, in essence, the compositional foundation of a future painting. Its technique – the translucent blending of colors that produce a warm impression of what he felt and saw while gazing upon natural and mad-made wonders.
Days spent in such a fashion allow him to fully absorb the motif, the environment, the sunlight and the winds, so that upon returning to his studio fully inspired, he can transfer the complete experience onto his canvas.
