Outdoor painting fun

With the heat outside, summer is for sure among us. A great moment to get the easel out into our beautiful garden and create some paintings of the beauty of nature.

We have a large pond in our garden and this time of the year is shows its beauty in all its form and colors. The water vegetation is at its peak with a wide variety of shapes, forms and an almost infinite range of values and colors. The gold fish are happy and shining as never before. A whole range of insects and other tiny creatures move around on there own personal missions.

I started a new watercolor painting of our pond and the beautiful water lilies it contains. We have several species which have beautiful white and pink flowers that show up against a wide palette of colored leafs. This time I chose to depict a white lily which was surrounded with colorfull leafs and some red bushes.

I am happy with the result. The new painting is a fine addition for my art series Nature.

See you outside !

New works Seeds of Love

The art series ‘Seeds of Love’ welcomes 4 new art works.

The theme encompasses the concept of “seeds of love” that shoot from the mother’s heart and soon a network of roots and hearts swirls around us.

I added some new works that explore the chaotic nature with more colors and different patterns.

I took the habit of getting out every day and start a new watercolor painting of our pond and the beautiful water lilies it contains. We have several species which have beautiful white and pink flowers that show up against a wide palette of colored leafs.

Painting outdoors can be challenging with the ever changing light conditions and potential weather changes and the occasional visit of our cat ‘Toby’ but I do find it very rewarding and great to ease the mind and find a state of happiness.

And it also gives me a good excuse to wear my fancy hat :-)

I sure hope there will be plenty more sunny days to come so my collection of nature works can grow.
