Birthday Bouquet

Comments

Happy belated birthday Sarah and what a nice way to great the morning, I like to sit at the bottom of my garden with a cup of tea listening to the cascade and birds. I do like the loose way you have painted this and the spatters, I can never seem to get myself that relaxed, nice one. You mentioned Dolphins in your profile, I have a painting in my gallery that I did for someone of Dolphins.

Thank you Malcolm . I shall go and have a look at the Dolphins in your painting. The North Sea is much too cold for Dolphins but I do know that you get a milder climate on the west coast due to the Gulf Stream winding its way up through the Menaii Strait.

Happy Birthday Sarah. I agree with you that the early hours are beautiful. I love the looseness of this painting and the no fuss brushwork has described the vase perfectly

Another small watercolour painting in my sketchbook. I was lucky enough to receive this beautiful Bouquet of flowers for my birthday and it gave me the push I needed to get my watercolours out. Mind you, this was at five o clock this morning but lovely sitting in the garden cooling off before the day gets going.
