An artist who specializes in creating aquarelle paintings, working primarily with transparent watercolor washes.
From French 'aquarelle' plus '-ist' (one who practices). This occupational term became standard in 18th-century art criticism to describe watercolor specialists.
Turner, the brilliant English landscape painter, was arguably the greatest aquarellist ever—he'd create these misty, atmospheric scenes with just water and pigment that still look impossibly advanced for their time.
