Watercolor has long been a favorite technique Vetrogonskogo, it is in it, he played most of his work, developing tools and techniques of watercolor painting of the early twentieth century with its inherent lightness, weightlessness, the autonomy of ideas, proclaiming the independence of art from politics. Borrowing from the traditions of not only domestic but also of British watercolor school, established in the XVIII century, as well as the elements and methods of the era of Romanticism, a master in his own deals with the tangible world, appearing in his works, breaking through the prism of their own worldview.

In order to emphasize the subtlety lessirovok, painter uses only the white surface of the paper, avoiding hand-tinted plates, which provides more vivid colors and sounds at the same time makes it possible to greatly brightened palette. In the works of masters obvious trend of perception of nature, primarily as a reflection of personal experiences, transforming the real world of phantasmagoria generated by the game sunlight and moonlight. Sea distance, regattas, ports and marinas, as the disappearance of the detailed plot, appear more evident in the artist's works as a desire to embody the ideal image.
