Prompt: Abundance

Today painting is inspired by the official prompt Abundance. I loved to paint this one! Today I went back painting in my well recognizable style, this month I am enjoying to paint every day in a different way so that you can see more of the ways I work.  I practice meditation daily from years,  for me came natural the inspiration to paint her practicing mindful meditation for Abundance. I hope you like her and that she inspires you.

The World Watercolor Month 2020 – Day 17

Day #17 World Watercolor Month 2020

Day 17 – Owl Spirit Animal – watercolor ©CarolinaRusso

 #WorldWatercolorMonth2020

Day 17
Owl Spirit Animal

This is Day 17,  my watercolor painting brings meanings and symbolism and is dedicated to a beautiful animal, the Owl. I love Owls and here where I live. I am lucky to be able to see them quite often in my evening walks, I see them flying around after the sunset or standing beautifully on trees. I have a special connection with Owls I don’t know what it is but I have been always fascinated by them. I have a little story, something beautiful happened time ago in one of my walks. A beautiful owl was standing high on a water tower near the hills at the park where I was walking. He was doing his call, I did respond mimicking his voice and he responded to me, we did this call conversation back and forth for about ten times! I found it to be a very special and a magic connection I had with this beautiful creature. Owls are also “Spirit Animals” from history they are associated with meanings like, Intuition, wisdom, power, transformation , protection, navigating the unknown, feminine power and more… In my painting I included also the symbol of the “Spiral” which symbolize connection to God and the energy of the cosmos. Spirals can represent harmony, beginning, concentration, and focus. They can be used to expand, connect, and develop the mind. Spirals represent journey, direction, and progress.

I hope you like this meaningful painting which brings a message of strength and harmony. I think all these meanings and good energy are needed, especially right now in the time of this shift we’re experiencing.

Day 13 of the challenge I have been busy in the past days  and I had no time to create a new painting. Today I have managed to paint this lovely round seascape outlined in ink!

Day #9 World Watercolor Month 2020

Day 9 – Peonias – Watercolor ©CarolinaRusso

#WorldWatercolorMonth2020 Day 9

Today I like to talk a little bit about the creative process of this painting and how evolved. The painting started just as pure energy, I had no plan of what to paint so I was free. I started with a wash of colors on wet paper, I just let the colors bleed with the water, you can see my work in progress in the photo below. Until then I didn’t know yet what would be the end result, I took time observing the colors and the soft shapes then I started working with my ink pen creating  fine lines, free hand no pencil sketch and a beautiful Peonias flower appeared.

Day #7 World Watercolor Month 2020

Day 7 – Prompt Free -Watercolor ©CarolinaRusso

#WorldWatercolorMonth2020 Day 7

World Watercolor Month 2020 – Day 7
Prompt: Free

Today painting started yesterday on Day 6, it was a work in progress! This painting is something a little bit different than my usual, I love to paint little seascapes or landscapes  in loose watercolor technique or style, I think I need to paint subject like this more often.
This watercolor is painted on the precious and beautiful “Arches” paper. The view is pure imagination I painted without any photo reference, it’s just as how I envisioned it in my mind. I am sure exist somewhere on Earth or else.  I just don’t know where is. I wanted to give almost an antique feel to this small painting, I have hand-cut and burned the edges of the paper on a candle flame which add a nice detail. The prompt “Free” makes me think at us surviving and overcoming the reality of our time feeling free, also makes me imagine at open spaces, the ocean and pure nature.
I love how it turned out 💗 I hope you do too!

What do you think? And what is the first thing that comes in your mind when you look at this painting?
I really would like to know! Please leave comments ❤
