Portraits in Aquarelle

School holidays here in the South of France, many of us Aquarellistas are occupied with kids. But on the other hand, a teacher visited for a try out. She is interested in watercolours yet can only make it in the holidays. It was a pleasure to have her test the waters and she will return at another occasion. The 'regulars" painted portraits - there is a new Portrait Workshop with Marina Teding van Berkhout on Monday afternoons and this way they could bring their technical knowledge into practice.
I am also off to the kids, so I'll keep it short and leave the comments to you! Enjoy our work...


WIP by Roxane



WIP by Anne



WIP by Martine


Anna Karin picked some wild flowers outside the Hangar and built a small still life. WIP, very subtle, doesn't need too much anymore if you ask me.


Corinne II has experience with watercolours from ages ago - but still nailed the 'boules' exercise! One with an example (above) and one from imagination - and experimenting with Complementary Colours





And last but not least, Laura has started with a double portrait of a newly married couple. She managed the drawing and made a promising start. We may have to keep this a secret, but of course I will show you the result!!
