Off for a week (not to Venice!)

Well, I'm off to Ballito on the North Coast of KwaZulu Natal tomorrow for a week - I am taking my laptop with me, but might or might not be posting here. Am going to try and fit some painting in, but that remains to be seen, as I have a lot of catching up to do with the family.

My daily sketch for today...


"Venice" watercolour on Bockingford - Maree©

This is actually an old painting I did in the 80's, but revamped it with some bolder colour and a couple of architectural changes.

    Oh enjoy your time with your family Maree. Lovely paintings Maree...The bolder colors really brought out the painting I think.

    Hope you're having a great time Maree. Lovely reflections in your Venice painting - I'm sure Ballito is almost as good!
