In the pink

What a beautiful day to wake up to!

The sun was well up by the time I had risen because I stayed up so late playing with...

THIS!
 
Done only with paint pens, and a limited palette as well, I also had trouble bringing up
the pinks on the computer that likes to turn them to a tint of violet
 
Tonight I tried a detail shot under the stove hood to bring up the glitter in the metallics.
It's funny how I love to work with colour but keep my home in neutrals.
 
I understand many are enduring the damp and cold of late autumn, so I'm grateful for the extra sunshine and moderate temperatures for a little while longer. Keep warm and well my dears.

spring is in the air


Spring's a-comin' in...

a view across the Avon River at low tide from Windsor on our way home from Halifax
 
While I haven't been too happy with my paintings of late (probably because I'm treating my watercolours like gouache), I thought this detail of one came out nicely.
 
as did this March Hare
 
centred in this moment
