Sunshine to Go *SOLD

I confess - I used a long lens and photographed an unknowing tourist outside the shop for the inspiration for this painting. A family had parked outside the shop and I loved the relaxed style of this young woman. I had my camera ready for when they returned and to my delight she had a coffee in her hand this time too! Scarf + jacket + coffee and relaxed style = perfect painting subject.

Overcast with a Good Chance for Wine *SOLD

I'm not sure it it's the women's posture, the bottle of wine or the overcast setting that gives this painting such a relaxed ease but something about it just calms me. This little watercolor developed quickly after the initial sketch. My graphite lines can be seen under the light watercolor to give the piece a loose - open feeling.
