COUNTRY VILLAGE - New Watercolor Painting

Years ago, I traveled with my young family to the Cotswolds in England. It was an enchanting place with picturesque, narrow winding lanes of half-timbered homes featuring bright red geraniums and red rose bushes. I finally got around to giving it a try with my watercolors. It looked really hard to paint - and it was! It was probably the most challenging painting that I've ever done.

Below are photos that show its progress. I hope that you will enjoy seeing the process!

I just couldn't help myself and had to work on my painting again! The top left part of this painting really bothered me. I realized that I had to adjust the angle of the bricks and the shape of the shadow on the top left window. NOW IT IS FINISHED!

BIRCH TREES IN WINTER

BIRCH TREES IN WINTER

In a surprise early snow, some trees on the mountains still have their leaves, but the birch trees are already bare. This majestic painting will create a peaceful, serene corner right in your home!

Catching My Breath....               

"After the busy-ness of the holidays I feel the need to unwind a bit, slow down, feel peace, catch my breath," says Anne MalonefromCreativeSpiritGlass. A very relaxing, calm collection.

Awaiting Midnight
"We stayed up to toast in 2012 with a campfire. While awaiting the magic hour, I did a little exploration with some of my favorite word colors and here is a collection of my favorite things. Happy New Year," says Shelley Macdonald from shelleymacdonald . I'm so happy that my Birch Trees in Winter painting is a part of this New Year's collection!
