Cellular Biology - in Watercolours

Last session's theme was more bent towards imagination as it was abstract enough, 'Cell Biology'. We were with a small group and it wasn't everyone's piece of cake, but the Aquarellistas who did work on it, created very good stuff! Have a look at the results (and after that enjoy Plant life and Portraits...)


Corinne finished her painting and we all agreed it was fabulous. Such clever use of light and background to suggest depth!


Thecla was happy with this subject and happily experimented away with it! Both are already looking fantastic, and not even finished!
 
 
Anna painted this playful, transparent bunch of cells - what is it? Frog spawn? Does it matter? Nope!


And another beautiful cell by Michele. She doesn't know which type of cells this is and says that the most dangerous ones are often the most beautiful.... But by painting them so lovely they can only be good!


And then there were other projects going on:

PLANT LIFE


Jutta painted this amazing Tulip (Parrot tulip?) with a fine brush and a bag full of patience. Of course it is not finshed and it is probably going to have a dark background to enhance the colours and the frilly shape!


Shirley is working on a very impressionist landscape. I honestly absolutely adore it!! Still a WiP, next version will have some green in it...and be less a statement of desolation.


Another WiP, by Anna - she tackles one of our most popular subject 'the plums'


Fabulous, I repeat, Fabulous blossom by Sue!! The sunlight is so clearly there.


The only thing I will say about this one it that the creator did not like it at all and we all did, so I felt you deserve to see it. What do you think?


PORTRAITS

 
Do I have to mention who this is? Don't think so! Sylvie has found her style and is creating all kinds of different monochrome portraits. BB wil get another layer and it is a great example of how the brain 'fills out' the missing information...

Judith painted her sister and her father. It is wonderful to see that she resembles  both of them!




This is the picture I took of the fantastic portrait of the magnificent Ella Fitzgerald by Sandra. Yet by now 
"she has most of her v dark brown hair sponged off, poor lady, so is partially bald until I attack her with Payne’s Gray and Purple!!! " 😄 Exiting! More next week...
