Plums

Finally a touch of blue color on my blog pages. Hard to believe it is my favorite colour.
Just a little sketch to wet the brushes...

Red Admiral

It was a warm, sunny weekend over here, which I spent mostly for olive gathering. :) I saw a beautiful Red Admiral in our field this morning. Funny coincidence as I was just going to paint this butterfly at the Wet Canvas October watercolor challenge.


Enjoy the autumn, everybody!

A rose

I discovered a hp site of a master of watercolors - Thierry de Marichalar.
A look at his magnificent paintings is a MUST! In his watercolors he creates amazing light effect and the colors literally glow.
I simply ADORE his work!!

There are many step by step techniques showed on his site, which he generously shares with others. Thank you very very much, Mr. Thierry.

I tried to follow one of his lessons making this little rose.
