woyww - watercolours




Painting flowers (freestyle) which I find very relaxing as it just empties my mind.   I adore botanical watercolours but, do not have the talent nor the patience.  So I paint imaginary flowers.

A couple of pics from my journal.

A landscape done quickly on the way down the California coast, minus the telegraph poles and lanes of highway of course!


Just to show that I do branch out occasionally a pic of a hat made famous in the "Breaking Bad" series. DH pointed out that it was first made famous by Popeye Doyle in the "French Connection"but that just shows our age.

woyww - photos and paint

Working on scrapping some photos from our holiday and also trying my hand at watercolours again (note 3 jars of water).  While I was away I started a journal and tried to quickly sketch and paint anything that took my fancy.
The seals at La Jolla were fun and definitely took my fancy.   I did this quickly when we got back to the motel and finally a another sketch and w/c wash trying to capture the cold winter sunset along Pebble Beach.

  Finally one of the watercolours I had been working on before I moved onto scrapping holiday photos.


I plan to visit lots of desks over the next few days but may not leave comments as I have had problems accessing my blog account.  No problems with google just family members who don't check which  google account they log into and then change passwords. Grrrr...
