Playing With Ink And Color

Applied the inklines first. Then wetted the paper completely and dropped in the colors. I love it, to let the colors flow. I love to watch them running over the paper and merge together. At this moments I would like to hold on the time. The wet paper with the wet color is the biggest thing!

Landscape sketch

Today I took a few minutes to draw this small plain air in the landscape where I live. The morning sun was so wonderful that it was fun to sit there drawing.

The sketch shows tree trunks of our neighboring farmer , who's selling them for firewood.
