Charles Demuth

Came across Charles Demuth today. Demuth was an American avante garde watercolourist born in Pennsylvania in 1883. He was a close associate of Georgia O'Keeffe and when he died in 1935 he left many of his works to O'Keeffe. Many of Demuth's paintings depict the emergent gay scene at the turn of the last century and he seems to have had a bit of a thing about sailors.
