Spheres & balls in watercolours

Last week in the Hangar: 'Semaine Decouverte' (Discover Week) New people were welcome to try out the classes at a lower-than-usual tariff. It brought us two very talented aquarellistas, Marie-Françoise and Delphine. They enthusiastically did the spheres exercise, finished it in no time - and followed it up with another one.The other Aquarellistas also worked super good! They painted spheres too - but other types of spheres! Check it all out below:

This fantastic sphere, a fishnet glass ball, was painted by Anne. I am in awe

Glen had a more organic take on the subject and painted beautiful red, round, realistic juicy tomatoes.

Delphine is an artist already and she really felt at home with the spheres. She worked on a double portion, starting with her own version in different sizes (below), and then with a more 'neat' example. And now she knows enough!

Marie Françoise also had her own take on the Spheres exercise, as well as a serious version, that jups off the paper! I love the colours and the neat-ness of both. Looking forward to seeing her back!

WIP by Martine, a coupe of spprts-related balls. Already so tasteful with its brown and ochre tones - and in the next stage, when shadows are added, it will be amazing!



Sue finished her warm & sunny garden-view and started a gorgeous boules-paintig that I forgot to take a picture of. Next week, promise!

Brenda started a portrait of her lovely younest granddaughter. Already beautiful but wait until it is finished...

Judith and Thecla really felt more like adventure and they had a great time together, mixing colours, splashing and dripping them on big pieces of watercolour paper, then looking at them for some time and deciding what they might still need. If anything, this is good for all of us, just t see that that is an option too - and seeing some amazing effects, with strong borders, beautifyl colour transistions and unexpected spontaneous shapes. Well done, experimetallists - or 'Les Folles' 😀
