Daydreaming

~~Moving slowly through the day, searching for inspiration, I think it's almost arrived. Colour and pattern and Bob's my uncle, except he isn't, only metaphorically.~~

Ah, Jess, this is a lovely painting. She is beautiful and contemplative. I kind of feel this way as well today. It is that kind of day to be sure.

Thanks Jess

Là tu t'es éclatée ! Superbe composition... puis les couleurs sont tout simplement merveilleuses ! Mais tu es une sacrée artiste ! Comme on dit chez moi, "Tu assures un max Jess !"

There, you were burst ! Superb composition then colours are simply marvellous ! But you are a sacred artist ! ! ! As they say to me in my country, " You assure max Jess! "

Sorry for my translation, but my translator said that he's very badly paid !

ByeBye Jessie and see you later !

I still think with your sense of colour you would design great children's clothes as well as your illustrations.

Thanks for such lovely comments! :)) Even though I went for a long time never using green, I really enjoyed using this colour combination, it must be the attraction of opposites on the colour wheel or something like that!

More Cottages During Lockdown and a Change in Medium.

I've been thinking about why I'm drawing cottages lately.  Maybe it's because there aren't many people around where we live and on our daily walks we rarely come across anyone else which I suppose is a good thing as we're still in Lockdown and have to practice Social Distancing which has now become a very well used phrase in our language! Maybe it's this lack of seeing people around that my mind is turning towards houses and flowers? The ones above are done in ink. I love the pearlescent inks, they're so beautiful when they catch the light. The paintings above and below are painted in acrylic. I've been obsessed with watercolour for a few weeks but I felt I'd like to get some acrylics out again. I've always been like this, going through phases of being obsessed with a particular medium thinking yes this is it! This is my final medium and then finding myself being drawn to changing once again to a different way of wor...
