Morning Stream
21cm x 29,5 cm
watercolor on paper
My husband found a perfect spot for kayaking. Last week I accompanied him, I enjoyed bringing my paints along. I tried to capture the light streaming in from behind. I also wanted to focus on the rocks. I worked on it some more at home but tried to get down as much information as I could while there. The light moves quicker than I can paint. Great for pushing me to keep my brushwork loose.
My work in progress, my subject and a little visitor wanted to come home with me.
All in all a fun day!
Thanks for stopping by.
W onderful painting, Celia! The water on the rocks is fabulous!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely fresh painting. Sunlight on the rushing water is so beautiful. I like that we are painting water at the same time.

I like the looseness of this painting and the movement of the water, really well captured !
ReplyDeleteDear Celia - looks to me like you captured a lovely spot with perfection.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you had a fun day friend. Hugs!
A water scene, it's just lovely Celia! It shows you had a good time. Have a great weekend! xx
ReplyDeleteBeautiful work with the water Celia...and LOVE the way you painted the rocks!!
ReplyDeleteReally love this Celia. It hits my spot that loves edgy Impressionist art so much. This is very reminiscent of that genre. Great to see.
ReplyDeleteYou've captured the ambience beautifully Celia! What a lovely spot to sit and paint - so relaxing! Great to see you painting plein air!
ReplyDeleteYou really captured the light well!! It is so hard to do because it moves so quickly. Nice spot for painting.
ReplyDeleteMy gratitude goes to everyone for the kindness expressed!!
ReplyDeleteBonjour chère amie,
ReplyDeleteUne très belle aquarelle... Des verts gourmands semblables à des bonbons acidulés.
J'aime la présence de cette petite araignée ! Après tout elle fait partie de l'environnement et c'est aussi pourquoi très souvent je les intègre dans mes peintures !
Bravo l'artiste !
Gros bisous ❀ ❊ ❀
