Due bellissimi acquerelli dove i colori dell'autunno si fondono magicamente. Complimenti Jane! Ciao.

I started to count colors, and stopped)). Great. Study 2 is my fav.

Jeanette Jobson ha detto...

Delicious paintings. The colours work so well and spell harvest.

Sadami ha detto...

Dear Jane,
Ohhhhhh...!! Beautiful!! Magic!
Cheers, Sadami

Both are beautiful. The second one feels a little less abstract to me and a bit more complete while the first one leans toward using the imagination more.

Susan Liles ha detto...

Beautiful colors, nice and loose!

Noemí González ha detto...

You've got the most glorious time of the vineyard. I like all this work so free that you make wet on wet.

Saludos!

I like both - the bottom one in particular because it has a little more texture. I love the Squirell Mop Brush too :o)
