I try to paint or draw every day.
I take my camera with me where ever I go, I use the photo's as an inspiration to paint from. But I also enjoy painting from life, either something set up or plein air, in the garden.
Saturday I came across lots and lots of hollyhocks.
Beautiful. I took lots of photo's and this is one of them.
Today I catched up with some challenges. This was one of them: "Ask a family member what kind of animal you are". the answer was "you are a cat......... very sweet, but sometimes you have nails".

Watercolour painted from flowers I cut in the garden or on the mountain.
I just spent a week in Barga, Italy with 2 friends from the UK. We had a great week. Beautiful weather, so we could sit outside the house on a huge terras and paint the gorgeous views of the town Barga and the Serchio Valley.
