Description Watercolour & Pencil [12.5 x 18 cm]

Yes, listening to the old Rolling Stones here! Postcard I did while at the beach reading Baudelaire previously...it started gloomy, then with the sun,sand & the palm trees of the yacht club behind me, it all went a bit weird! Feel free to have a laugh, it was just a quickie...
(Thankyou to my lovely friend who drove me there, housed me,bought me gelatis & made sure I didn't burn....xxx)

Wow, this looks really cool from what I can see. I wish it were larger so I could see all of the details.

Really pretty fantastical style. I love the colors and depth of this.

AngelusNoir In reply to Glasscherry [2006-02-04 02:20:57 +0000 UTC]

Thanks!..I was definitely in dreamland that day!
I collect old vinyl 45s (singles-my boy burned them onto cd for my holiday) & this is from the 60s(love that era!)band The Rolling Stones, "Child of the Moon"...I love listening to old music on a really hot sunny day!

"Oh, child of the moon, bid the sun arise
Oh, child of the moon
Give me a misty day, pearly gray, silver, silky faced,
Wide-awake crescent-shaped smile ...!"

AngelusNoir In reply to farmasil [2006-02-04 01:45:41 +0000 UTC]

I was painting both postcards on & off all day...so hot, even under the trees! I suppose, an hour & a half non-stop! Not really, my best work, I don't like working outside in public! But it was so gloriously beautiful!I painted the boats & the ocean too, but I wasn't happy with it...
Thankyou for your charming compliment!
