Have you ever wondered what keeps clouds suspended in the sky?
I thought this worked nicely for Illustration Friday - Suspend
It's funny and very telling that one of my favorite journal pieces is this watercolor sunset I painted from our lanai looking north over the bluffs of Princeville. It only took me 15 minutes...which is maybe why it looks so good to me. I didn't have time to over think and mess it up!
In other big news...we have a new puppy...AND...a new kitty! The new kitty actually came 10 days ago. We decided it would be fun to have a kitten and a puppy grow up together.
Meet Io the kitty and Oberon the pup.

Wonderful painting! And I love the new siblings :)
ReplyDeleteI love the colors in your painting! And your new little babies are too cute!!
ReplyDeleteI just mentioned Kauai in my comment on someone's post. I remembered the smell of Jasmine on our hikes there. Your clouds are very serene.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful painting, and your little one's are just precious:)
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your new family members! Adorable! Beautiful Kauai sky, too!!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful soft colours! You've captured a moment and I think it works perfectly for "suspend".
ReplyDeleteThanks Claire!
DeleteA lovely painting and adorable new pets, plus you live in Kauai - how lucky are you!
ReplyDeleteThanks!...I wish I lived in Kauai but I was only visiting.
DeleteThe colors and texture are just perfect!! Cloud, beach, and ocean all have a unique texture and feel with just a few brush strokes...well done!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your new babies, Rita! Your sunset watercolor is lovely. It looks so soft and cotton-candy-like!
ReplyDeleteThis is very pretty! Now I'm even more psyched about going to Maui/Kauai in February...
