About two years ago I changed my employer and shortly after I brought home my private office things, including a Winsor & Newton Sketcher's Pocket Box, this beautiful little watercolor set went missing.
After waiting for two years for it to show up again, I finally gave in and bought a new one, when it was on sale. (I expect the old one showing up any time soon.:D)
I also ordered some Clairefontaine watercolor paper, as it was highly recommended to me by an online art friend.
New colors and new paper all in one is always a challenge, but here we go with a familiar topic: Birds! Starting with rough pencil sketches,....
....then adding some watercolor. Always keeping in mind, that....
....these are only sketches and not finished paintings.
Really love how this little Blue Tit turned out.
Great Tit.
And now for the coffee discussion and my entry ticket to "T stands for....". What's your favorite way to make coffee? A fully automatic bean to cup machine? A filter machine? Or the classic Italian Moka Express? Please share!
Isn't that the way when something goes missing? Your little birds are lovely. My favorite is the robin. Here, the American Robin is a harbinger of Spring. I saw my first robin yesterday! I don't drink coffee, but when company comes I use a Keurig coffee machine and coffee pods. Happy T Day
AntwortenLöschenYour little watercolour birds are lovely! I use Winsor & Newton watercolours too -- it's a great brand. Thanks for leaving a comment on my blog earlier today, I appreciate it!
