'From my window'

'From my window'
Sketchbook 9x11 inches

Well, here I was in a guest house, miles away from home, staring out of my window at the soft drizzling rain...when, suddenly the sun peeped out from behind the clouds and the picture changed...there was light on the trees and I sprang for my sketch book and paints...one hour to get dressed for work and here I was painting!!!

Painting foliage has always been challenging and even more so in watercolors....As an artist, I have been struggling with getting the foliage just right!!! and of course keeping the transparency alive...

I am quite happy with this attempt..and I think I paint better in my sketch book as I dont feel pressurized and stressed about wasting good paper:-)))
