Enchanted by Delphiniums
Last week on my watercolour workshops at the Market Street Gallery in Alton a variety of subjects were covered but the delphiniums in one particular session have not left my mind all weekend. In my imagination I could see their almost translucent petals and the mixture of balance throughout the composition. Today I started a completely new painting and this is how the painting has evolved so far. It feels fresh, alive and exciting. My blank piece of white paper quickly became a riot of blue hues.
A close up shows how much I am enjoying the white centres of these beautiful blooms.
Tomorrow is a new day and I close my studio session this evening with a feeling of yearning for the morning when I can take another large piece of white paper and cover it with vibrant clear colour, energetic brushstrokes and a sense of beauty.
It is going to be a wonderful week!
