An artist of Parisian life during the Belle Epoque, Houbron often distinguished himself with a particular technique: he glued paper to canvas, then applied a preparatory layer (white color) and worked sometimes with pencil, sometimes with ink, sometimes with gouache, and sometimes with watercolors. In exhibition catalogs, this technique is often referred to as "watercolor".
