Besides the obvious choices of people like Sargent, Zorn, Wyeth and Homer, I like William Russell Flint a lot

I also am fond of Rodin's watercolours, though they may not be what you are looking for. More here:

What are some good resources for learning watercolor paint? I'm trying to get into this after spending my entire life just doing pen/pencil drawings. I have a good grasp of gesture and anatomy but I want to branch out and add color to my art. I hear watercolor is a bitch to learn but I love how it looks. Any suggestions? Here's a pic to keep in with the thread theme.

This might not be the most impressive piece, but I find it really comfy. Especially the way the houses in the middle are painted. I think I like it because the style reminds me of 80's children's book illustrators. Anyone know more like this?

Good water colorists are so hard to find
Found out about Joseph Zbukvic a couple days ago

This is true. For some reason good taste becomes even more important when using watercolor.
