We took a break from the "Roses without Thorns", and dedicated last week's aquarelle session to valentine's day - as our theme du jour. And lots of interesting work came out of that, as different personalities think different thoughts with a theme like this! Angels, cupids, hearts - and yes, roses...
Angel by Cathie van der Stel - note the peaceful wise expression
Cupid by Bibbi Isaksson. This is just a try out, he doesn't even have his wings - but look at the light, his expression and the softness of his skin...
Cupid, hearts and roses by Edith Alborni - done with humor as a kind of cartoon and that worked out well!!
We had Rhoda Seymour-Dale visiting who hadn't been drawing or painting for a long time. She started out carefully with a still life and then couldn't stop! I think she's ready for a bit of paint now...we look forward to seeing her approach to watercolours...
Bibbi's little girl with ancient eyes (and roses)
Not finished but developing into a gorgeous painting, these roses by Sandra Seymour-Dale
And the next version of Anna-Karin Fast's Roses without thorns, the christmas roses... she's not quite happy with them but I think they are wonderful. Anna-Karin has a certain, recognizeable spontaneous style... More about that in coming posts...
There was much more work done, projects like the white still life and the trainer were finished...
The white still life, finished and stronger than ever - by Ann Edwards
The white still life by Edith Alborni - completed!
The trainer by Edith Alborni - Completed!
...and other projects are still ongoing:
Marina Teding van Berhout's hands - still going on...
