He subsequently took up oil painting and produced major studio works characterized by the weight and density he exploited from the medium. He also worked extensively in watercolor, creating a fluid and prolific oeuvre, primarily chronicling his working vacations.  Related Paintings of Winslow Homer :. | Sunrise,Fishing in the Adirondacks (mk44) | Shepherdess still control the sheep | Hakusan carriage and Streams | 3 boys | The Walking Wounded |
