Cliché
Some people think the subject
of old barns in watercolor has become an overused and tired cliché. But so what? I
personally think these structures are endangered and enduringly beautiful. So, cliché
or not, I will keep reaching for my camera whenever I see one.
…………………………………………................................................................
Certas
pessoas consideram o tema de velhos celeiros/barns como um cansado e abusado
cliché. E depois? Pessoalmente encontro estas estruturas não só em vias de
extinção, mas perenamente belas. Daí, cliché ou não, vou sempre agarrar a câmara
quando vejo um.

Speed
At times, I force myself to paint watercolor as quickly as possible. The idea is to avoid adding excessive detail that risks losing the painting’s center of interest. This exercise shows the view outside my window and took 20 minutes to complete without previous drawing.

Por vezes, forço-me a pintar aguarela o mais rápidamente
possível. Isso tem o intuito único de me obrigar a eliminar detalhes que
arriscam a pintura a perder o seu centro de interesse. Este exercício mostra a
vista da minha janela e demorou 20 minutos a completar sem desenho prévio.

Heavy Skies - Céus Carregados
Today I continued to experiment with heavy skies, which I have always liked. I just purchased some new colors designated “Lunar” from Daniel Smith. They are very granular, an effect that I find very interesting, but that I have yet to perfect over the paper surface.

Continuei hoje a experimentar com céus carregados porque
sempre tive essa mania. Comprei uns novos tubos de cores chamadas “Lunar” de
Daniel Smith. Estas tintas são muitos granuladas, um efeito de que gosto
bastante, mas que ainda preciso de aperfeiçoar sobre o papel.

Study - Estudo - Hanover Square, Horseheads, NY
Tried a very quick study on dry extra-smooth Bristol board.
Always learn something, I say.
