Watercolor Painting from the Subject to Interpretation Series
I've posted a new watercolor - finished about a month ago actually. The reference was a photo taken by another artist and shared with the Portland Plein Air & Studio Painters Group as part of its "Subject to Interpretation" series. The idea for the series was the brainchild of Katherine van Schoonhoven, who offered it to the group to keep us inspired during the winter months. My thanks to Katherine.
I like this painting, and feel I was successful in capturing the warmth of the early morning light.
Although I didn't paint today, I did manage to take a walk in the morning before the clouds set in. There were lots of other folks taking advantage of the sunshine as well. Later in the day, we headed out to Al's Garden Center - a favorite nursery to shop for plants or just get inspiration for our yard. Today was a purple, lavender, and white day for the garden.
I had a good day - hope you did too!

Donna,
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you are blogging more regularly. I always enjoy my morning more when I see a friend's art, or read a little personal reflection.
