Description ....and you never know!

I used watercolors (half pans and tubes) on pastelmat (yeah the paper that does crazy things when its loaded with washes )
Going to enter this to the thematic folder of December thefavouriteshowcase.deviantar… in (one of the best groups out there with an amazing founder and solid dedicated art lover )
 
Big cuddle and credits to for his kind permission to use as a ref!

At this point it is only fair to wish to all and every single one of you a very merry Christmas and a prosperous 2015 filled with joy, love, happiness, inspiration and art!!! Be well and smile my friends!!

I like to re-watch of my favourites and I realized that I have "favourites among favourites". And this painting belong to them. The watercolor is so difficult technique (actually, I did not try it seriously, I hadn't enough courage). I like the combination of colors - these violet-blues mixed with yellow-orange. And the atmosphere

my dear, i have made available for you the biggest size possible regarding prints in the site, and you will find all information for pricing in the Prints section (just press the Buy this print button up right to see sizes and prices)
So for the biggest size 30x45 inches, the price is €69.66 for a not framed product.

Please let me know if this worked for you and thank you very much in advance

cloudmilk [2015-01-17 09:01:55 +0000 UTC]

The atmosphere is so wonderfully rendered !
 For me the irregular edges on top of buildings are plants and small trees. We often see them like that in Paris (or elsewhere!)

XRlS In reply to cloudmilk [2015-01-18 16:49:32 +0000 UTC]

i know exactly the roof tops you are talking about and i LOVE them, they are green oasis in the middle of the concrete
i didnt want to keep everything aligned, i liked the loose lines sporadically. It is clear i was focusing on color and not on sketching with this.
But it is in my mind to make a watercolor with sharp lines and clear sketching in the near future.

cloudmilk In reply to XRlS [2015-01-24 15:45:43 +0000 UTC]

Those lines are surely not the the subject in this piece .
You perfectly rendered the atmosphere, and your color palette is as joyful as usual
And I can't ait to see your next challenge of a watercolor painting with sharp lines !

This is beautiful! I love how the colors bleed into each other.

XRlS In reply to GabrielleCarlson [2015-01-17 06:47:51 +0000 UTC]

the bleeding thing is a result of the media (watercolors) but mostly a result of the paper lol, pastelmat is repelling the washes somehow so its very exciting to work on it Thank you for the lovely words

GlassHouse-1 [2015-01-16 03:54:40 +0000 UTC]

This is just a gorgeous painting.  It is also one of my all time favorite photos from   .  I love how you captured the light and the colors are beautiful.

XRlS In reply to GlassHouse-1 [2015-01-16 08:59:50 +0000 UTC]

the photo was amazing to me on its own the moment i saw it i knew i had to touch it.
But what is funny in the end is that our Art is nothing but en extension to Ourselves. Seeing the painting i created is like seeing Tomi's photo with various colorful filters on.

i am totally with you on this " It is also one of my all time favorite photos from   " i couldn't agree more
