Provence
Here is a little study of a door in Provence, France. The goal here was to create texture without becoming too painterly, therefore using black and sepia inks in addition to watercolour to try and achieve that.
Porte irlandaise
Here is another scene from Ireland. This turned out more graphic than I had expected; I was going for painterly with lots of texture, but I’m happy with how it turned out.
Watercolour & ink. 8×10.
Guatemala
I did this one a few years ago and still really love it. I’ve been consistently trying to mix brighter watercolor washes and create more texture and contrast in my paintings. I feel like this one is quite effective.
Victorian Lady
I love drawing ladies in costume. I always hear about artists setting goals for themselves of one drawing a day, whatever the theme is, and I feel like drawing one Victorian lady a day is something I could really get behind and motivate myself to do…maybe 😉
