All Around the Town

12x9 watercolor on Langton 140 lb cold press paper/Daniel Smith paints and Winsor Newton.  First I sketched the scene using black ultrafine Sharpie pen and did crosshatching in darkest value areas such as doorways and windows, then painted it.  At the very end, a woman was added.  Photo ref courtesy my friend Kev Fowler who took it in Skiathos, Greece; buildings edited out for clarity and design.

Woven Flowers of Passion

15x22 work is actually two identically painted scenes of pink roses in front of a house. The original was ho-hum boring so a few years late...
