Day 31 – Rose
Prompt: Do Over
Today was last day of this wonderful World Watercolor Month. The prompt is “Do Over” I painted this same rose already once and I did it again. A rose is a subject in painting that if you like to paint flowers you will paint it over and over! I hope that you enjoyed to follow this month challenge, I thank you very much for your support and love for my art, it means so much to me! Thank you I haven’t painted 31 paintings this year, I have been busy, but I was able to paint a variety of subjects from landscapes, seascapes, flowers, animals, and mystic ones. I hope you resonated with them! I guess you did, from your lovely comments! Thank you, of course I am not stopping here, painting isn’t my hobby is my living! I will keep painting, I am so grateful that I have a nice commission painting that I need to do soon. I will share it with you when Is done and received. Stay tuned for more art! ❤

Day #30 World Watercolor Month 2020
#WorldWatercolorMonth2020
Day 30
Prompt: Pose
Today painting is inspired by the prompt “Pose” and for me is time for a meditation 🧘♀️ pose! This is what instantly came to my mind while preparing for today painting. When thinking at the prompt Pose, I had a strong pull for a Meditation pose. As I mentioned already in a previous post, meditation is part of my life from long time, it is something I do daily!
I can’t believe this month of July is almost over! Tomorrow is last day of the 5th Edition of this wonderful World Watercolor Month Challenge!

Day #28 World Watercolor Month 2020
#WorldWatercolorMonth2020
Day 28
Prompt: Complementary
Today painting is inspired by one of the beautiful birds I see once in a while here in California, is the “California Scrub Jay” it has a beautiful blue color and often is mistaken for the “Blue Jay” which is another specie. The Scrub Jay is a nonmigratory bird and can be seen also in urban areas. I see it sometime in my backyard, it is a pretty big bird and is always nice to watch whenever shows up! Here there is a photo of this beauty. About today prompt “Complementary” and this painting, I think that us humans and animals are complementary we won’t be the same without animals ❤

World Watercolor Month 2020 – Day 24
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.

Day #9 World Watercolor Month 2020
#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.
