The idea of last weeks' theme was to create our own versions of the famous Commedia Dell'Arte characters. But most Aquarellistas felt like other subjects - so only Glen, myself and Tony gave it a try - and Tony painted 3 of them so there still is plenty of examples in this blog...
WIP by Glen: Arlequino, a light-hearted nimble servant...
Capitano, Columbina and Scapino, by Tony who's back from his travels to join us once again, Yay!
Elisabeth painted with us from Sweden and created this pompous Pantalone! As she says, he is probably arguing about the price with a merchant. And knowing everything better, judging by his body language... I love the red! Well done.
And just in, a real piece of work from Michèle, our correspondent from Bretagne. She has been on holiday and is clearly refreshed and full of energy. Four characters from the commedia group! Their faces show Michele's friendliness. Very good and personal...
Glen is also back from travels and she started with this Magnificent own impression of liquid metal. Original, clever and breathtaking!!
And another cause for enormous enthusiasm is this painting of peonies (from own garden) by Charlie. Still a WIP - she will be tweaking it a bit but it is already stunning. Love it!
Thecla's WIP - a stylised flower field. Lots of work yet it is already getting structure and texture!
And as we have to do without Judith this week, we have Sandra for a bit of extra attention. She will have an Expo in the Office de Tourisme of Cabris in July and certainly deserves some publicity for her excellent work, here's a sneak preview (in no particular order)
Two very nice, small watercolour-ink drawing combinations, part of a larger and truly excellent series
WIP. Going to be strong and colourful
Part of a series of stunning shells, painted with watercolours on gesso-ed canvas. Such cool daring stuff! Can't wait to see the whole show.
