Lovely garden rose today. I have returned from a week-end course in a residential college not far from here. My car has been parked under the glorious rose bush I couldn't resist the temptation to snatch one of the flowers and here it is in watercolour.

Rose and Pebbles



I have started this painting several days ago but completed it only today. I wanted to create the sea cottage feeling when I started it. It's too soon now for me to have an objective view of it. I am fairly pleased with it so far.

White Rose and Physalis


Just managed to finish this still life despite the groggy feeling from the heavy cold I am having at the moment. Have come across these physalis in Tesco the other and was surprised to find out that it's the same kind of plant that I have recently come across near our house. Those fascinating, all dried up, transparent lanterns in the pink glass vase which I painted the other day and these full bodied and utterly delicious fruits are in fact brothers... or sisters. I love painting withered textures and colours and I absolutely love reflections.
