'Crashing Waves' & Winks in watercolours

It is Hot in the South of France and that's where we are! Painting with Watercolours helps us cope, especially when we have a cool subject... Amazing results already!! Not too many - the group gets smaller as we are in, or very close to the holiday season!

Crashing Wave by Vanessa! That's the power of nature in one painting. Fantastic.

Very impressive high waves by Sheila. It is really her subject! Great stuff.

Another one by Sheila, again spontaneous and although this was marked 'work in progress', when I see the photo I wonder if it isn't exactly right like this, what do you think?

And last but not least #1/3 by Sylvie who really needed this and, like Sheila, mainly worked with colours, achieving a gorgeous effect. More like this next week!!

We are also continuing with the Bottle & Brush (no news today) and with our eyes, one closed and one open. A good exercise, with a highlight, a round shiny shape, skin colour, shadows, darks and lights, you name it! And also input for the Expo- poster, announcing our Aquarellista Expo in 2019. (We're well in time ๐Ÿ˜œ) Carol and Marie-Claire started with their opened eye:

 Marie-Claire is going to finish hers next time - but painted a good basic shape!!

 Carol's eye is so Cool! She may create a next version, as she thinks it may be a bit too much 'Comic Book'. Anyway, looking forward to her Wink!

 
I absolutely adore the eyes Avril painted!  I hope she sees this and is proud of herself ๐Ÿ˜Š

Lydia already works like a master-Aquarellista (after 3 classes) and her eyes are stunning. The real ones as well as the painting!
