I've been in museums here in Paris all week getting ready for my art history and sketchbook workshop--and am still looking back to my time in Spain with new paintings that I'll be posting over the coming weeks.
Suan;I like your work very much. It's so clean. Terrific. Can u visit my blog (www.johnwatercolors.blogspot.com ) and give me so tips no how to do same in my paintings ? thank you
Thank you for your comment about my painting, John. I'd be happy to take a look at your blog. It's very difficult to help someone with their painting, though--just too complicated a thing to try to do quickly!
Thanks you, Linda. Yes, great to be spending so much time in museums, both here and in Madrid. One of the things I miss living in a rural area is the ability to go into an art museum for some inspiration whenever I want to--this experience should hold me for awhile!
Thanks so much for writing, Deborah. I'll be posting more paintings from this trip to Spain and Paris when I get back to my studio--this week I'm teaching here in Paris, so painting will have to wait.

My visual journal is inspired by what I see every day: the weather on my hill in northern Vermont, what’s growing in my garden, a curio brought back from travels or an ordinary object from the kitchen shelf made special by careful looking. "Journal" paintings are fast, improvised daily entries, a chance to experiment with new approaches and pay attention to the here-and-now. When I’m traveling, quickly recorded impressions are posted from Paris, Provence, Spain, Maine and anywhere else I’ll find myself this year. My large studio compositions take time, planning, refining of the original inspiration. I'll also be sharing that different kind of creative process with you here on "A Painter's Year".

How lovely! That red roof just draws your eye right down that alley/street. Beautiful.
Thank you. I love the drama of light and dark on these old, narrow European streets.

I love the light in this one, Susan, and such great perspective.

how wonderful, the dark foreground, being drawn to the light in the background. Very emotional.
I'm glad you like this, Teresa!
Hi Susan,
Brava! Great composition, value contrast and economy. What is your palette?
Susie Campbell
Hi there, Susie! I used prussian blue and quinacridone siena (a Daniel Smith color) for this one.
This painting is just wonderful - I love it.
Congratulations!
