Two colors

 Click image to enlarge!

Rains theme for today is Two colors. Suited me fine as there was something I had thought of doing. 

Wind
A4 watercolor paper painted with coffee and Burnt Sienna watercolor. At first I planned to use Burnt umber to finish off. But I changed my mind when I saw it as it was. Sometimes less is more. 

 Yellow Waterfall
Watercolor on A5 CarbOn paper. No water added.

 Pink coral!
This was a failure I had "collecting dust".  Waiting for ideas. It was painted with the blue tempera but scraped of  in the center.
I put dots of glue here and there to create corals and filled them with pink glitter. When it dried I decided to paint some fish as well to give it "life".

Hm, strange, no photoart today.  😀

  2. You have given us some beautiful examples of your art. I like all of them, but my favorite might be Wind. I can almost feel the energy and movement there.

  3. Isn't it wonderful how much variation you can create with just two colours?! I love the coffee and Burnt Sienna one - the brushstrokes have such energy and movement. Happy PPF!

  4. Wow - just wonderful! Love the coffee! Does it count when I put my brush in the coffee by mistake instead of the water? Love the flow of the waterfall.

  8. I agree that there are times when less is more and you found one ... it's that good eye that you have. I love the waterfall and the trees, birds and grasses ...in the eye of the beholder. Once again simplicity wins. I also love your coral, but especially your subtle fish. Great job today, Monica :) Be well ...
