Dessins Confinés - Sketches during lockdown - Skizzen während des Lockdowns (Teil VI)

 


The subjects get more difficult... In the meantime, while posting our daily art and talking about it we made friends from a distance. The group is very homogen and nice and with the subject "sundown" I could see that the level in the group is really high. No kitschy sundowns, but very beautiful ones done in watercolour and/or pastels and I loved them all. It feels like being still somehow connected to the world of art and this feels good. (In Germany the lockdown restrictions become more tight now.)

Here again is what Ghislaine wrote about our two subjects (one per day):


Bonsoir à toutes et à tous,

Dernière semaine de confinement, de dessins…. Enfin normalement ! Cette belle galerie de peinture nous manquera !

Voici les prochains thèmes :
J41 - mercredi 9 décembre - Thème :  Bonnet, écharpe, gants etc…..(cappello, guanti,sciarpe….)
J42 - jeudi 10 novembre - Thème : coucher de soleil (Tramonto)

So the first subject was: head, scarf and gloves

I painted just gloves as I did not have much time that day. The special thing about them is that all mixes are made out of the three colours indicated. After drying time I used a few coloured pencils to indicate a bit the knitting.

The next subject was: Sundown

You can see my sundown up on the page. I don't have ocean nor a nice lake here, so I did a watercolour of my beloved forest at sunset. The computer doesn't show the whole spectrum of colours. The original on paper is so much better...so long on this Sunday and happy painting everybody.
