Watercolor 526

Roses

A severely overworked piece. 

LIfe Drawing and Pretty Blooms

During laundry again:

(the discolored spot above the car on this page was a sunlight patch that the camera decided to villainize)

And the pretties from Sunday that I couldn't help but share (not mine, I don't pretend to garden or arrange squat these days haha)

I think the tiny purple ones were called Sea Lavender? I have such a goldfish memory lately. But I've never seen them before and I am in love.

idk, I kind of squashed them on the ride home, but these just made my week better XD enjoy also!

Busy, busy, busy! With the roommate's wedding, and the horrors of job hunting, I am sorry to say I'm just dropping this and running off again; but I will catch up on the other blog posts soon! They look interesting from the thumbnails I saw in the Compose list on Blogger here. ♥ Take care!

Water

In the mountains, one sees waterfalls and tumbling streams everywhere, especially with the rainy year we have had.

Along my walking path

This is along the water, even if you can’t see it in the picture. If you were there, you could hear it. In the background of the picture is a railroad bridge.

Details

How one holds a candle.

Swirls here and there

When maybe one is annoyed at holding stuff up forever.

“ Just” a side Altar 

And tucked away, so you have to look hard for it…..

A Walk Around

Disentis has a famous cloister. This is not it. 

Nor is this.

But….

In the distance, you see it. 

Remnants of the medieval frescos. ( They are behind glass now, so the picture quality is not great.)

Beautiful figure modeling. 





A peek into ancient history.

New and renovated

The pulpit. 

Disentis

This was supposed to be posted yesterday. I am not sure why it didn’t go through.

New Location

While the stroll through St. Gallen is not done, I decided that I will interrupt it for my present location. I am presently with two of my you g people for a life planning retreat in the mountains of Graubunden. These little towns get very busy in ski season, but right now it is quiet here. And raining, of course. 

The drive to get here was through spectacular mountains. 

The church did not fall over, but the camera-holder was a little jostled. 

We came from that gap that says Zürich. 

We drove that white road. 




We are in the lower right hand corner. 

To be continued….

Little Class Illustrations

I've been helping a lovely acquaintance with illustrations for an online preschool course she's setting up. (Regulars to the blog, you probably know who I'm talking about and what the course is for, but I wasn't sure how specific I should get publicly, haha...)

She did give me permission to share a little bit of my WIP like yea:

I'm using Clip Studio Paint, because vector layers. (thumbs up) XD

 

I'm saving each one as a transparent PNG, and also as a slightly compressed (?) JPG. (Also I was having trouble finding a scarf drawing idea that actually looks unmistakably like a scarf, in case you are wondering about the three different blue scarf sketches here, haha...)

 I am excited to see this course come together! :D The outlines and such look great so far!
