Rainy Days
Splish, splash, splosh!
What to do on a rainy day? Another morning spent sitting indoors and watching the rain run down the windows, at least the garden was getting watered!
I started off the day with a spot of painting and drawing. First applying some light brush strokes of watercolour to the paper. Adding some water to allow the colours to run, like the rain drops running down my window.
Once the watercolour was dry the next stage was drawing the grasses and lavenders using drawing ink and a dip pen.
The final stage was adding colours to the grasses and lavenders using acrylic paints. Soft blue and purple hues for the lavenders, and golden yellows and pale greens for the grasses.
Very beautiful. As a photographer, I unsuccessfully tried to capture 'weather' in the camera. We can show wind in the trees and fog, but getting the feel for a rainy day has always eluded me.
I love your minimalist approach looks wonderful. I can feel the light wind with the rain in your painting.
Hmmm. I have much work to do :) Thank you for sharing.
Cheers,

Love it. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for showing the pathways you travel to find your art. I do enjoy seeing how each of us find our way to our art. That journey for each and every creative project consumes me. This is in a good way. I allow myself to be taken where the image and sound pushes. Beautiful process. Sometime (not often enough) I am left with art I truly love. I can see how you have taken the water on glass and let the image take you to the painting technique to produce your beautiful scene.
Thank you again for sharing. I am following you now and I look forward to enjoying more of your work.
All the best,
