'Paint' in Aquarelle

 This is an awesome painting by Marie-Jo, the paint pots look so real and as if they are standing on the table!!

Our subject was 'paint' last week. Simple as that! And as usual there were as many perspectives on the subject as participants 😊. I am absolutely delighted with what was done - and you will be too probably, have a look!

 Something completely different by Sonya, thick colourful wet dripping paint. So cool!

 Hélène's version of 'paint'. Very subtle and original!

 This is so strong in colour and shape! the shadows make it very realistic. By Glen, I love it!

 This robust version has old stained paint pots and the print of the pots on the floor, together creating an interesting composition. So well done, by Liz (Who else) !

 Cari created this splash of paint. She wasn't so happy with it but everyone else was! It's super!

By the look of it Jutta had a good time with this quick, wet painting. And it is wonderful! A spontaneous and happy painting, well done!

 Michele  painted this composition of paint pots - and it is so fantastic. Tip: in the first wash she painted the whole background in a light ocher except for the pot with white paint. That's why it stands out!

Sue had yet another view on the pots - it is a work in progress and my pic doesn't do it justice, but it is already interesting, especially the 'empty spaces'

This spontaneous watercolour with 'paint' as a theme by Judith started very wet, then had some adventures being left to dry on that one shelf that was then used to stack a big box, it was lost and found and now she has zentangled just enough to show the most lovely fantasy animal...

Other wonderful progress was made in the Mona Lisa department! The previous session we painted our versions of the most famous painting in the world - and not all were finished...

Jutta's MonaLisa is fabulous!! Very different from the original - but still with the same 'feel' to it. And certainly with a mysterious smile... Love the hands, and of course the shape of the background!

 Celina created a breathtaking - and hip!- version, admired by many, in three colours (& white but that is the paper of course) that you would not immediately think of with this subject, but they work!

 Vanessa stayed true to the subject but added a very contemporary facial expression and make up!

And Carol's Mona has something quite actual as well, she looks very much like my friend Zoe, and also a lot like Greta Thunberg!

And then there are the other ideas and projects! Always interesting and I love to see what everyone comes up with...

Judith for example, created this very loving, beautiful and erotic image. In between experimenting with wet-in-wet and creating something out of random shapes in her other paintings
This is the finished watercolour of a true warm autumn bouquet painted by Sue, around a magazine clipping. Wonderful!
 Glen improved and finished her autumn leaves before she started the paint pots. They look even better!

 This is unmistakably Anna Karin, with a very attractive yet cold autumn, as always simple, superb & surprising

and last but not least, Carol's finished O So velvet pumpkins.  Awesome...
