Hello friends,
I am so sorry that I have been quite and I haven’t posted lately. Not even for this beautiful event this year I am going to create one painting at week I have been very busy lately fulfilling orders for my Scott Hutchison Tribute Portrait.  I also had some very sad days I have lost two pets in the last 10 days so my heart is grieving!

Today painting it is off of the official prompt list.  The title I gave is “Universal Love”  is a watercolor enhanced with gold and fine line work with ink. I love the contrast of the raw sketch style in addition to the watercolor.

Day #23 World Watercolor Month 2017

Day 23 – Amy Winehouse (Off Prompt)- Original Watercolor ©Carolina Russo

Today painting is an off prompt it is the portrait of late singer “Amy Winehouse” this morning I was inspired to create this portrait by a friend that posted one of her photo on Instagram. I decided to paint Amy Whinehouse as part of my “Art For Music” Collection. While painting surprisingly I realized that today July 23 she passed away six years ago. It’s strange that I felt the urge and inspiration to paint her just today! When I started to paint I didn’t know today was recurring the anniversary! So my portrait it is a Tribute to her talent and music.

Details about my watercolor paintings:
 My watercolors is outlined with black, white and dark red ink pens. I used  French Artists Watercolors  Sennelier  l’Aguarelle,  Ink pens used COPIC Multiliner Black ink #03 and 05 .
