January Watercolor

Every year I create my own calendar. Lets me put birthdays and personally significant events on it without the writing against the wall thing. Most of the time I use photos I've taken over the year. When it's not dark before / after work I usually take photos of the sky. The Puget Sound has some lovely sunrises and sunsets on the regular.

This year, I decided that I'd do watercolors since I've been working on my watercolor skills. This one is the January watercolor. They're all water-focused because painting water is my favorite thing to do.

Super happy how this one turned out. I really love the islands in front and the clouds, too.

How beautiful, painting water with water. As water is the element of compassion, life-giving, clearing, it's obvious working with it, is like creating peace. I used to paint in a anthroposophical style, wet in wet. It's peaceful to work this way, your painting shows that same kind of peace .I simply can look at it for a long time, imagining this for being a real place to be. In a world that lacks silence and peace, this is something we need to see much more! I love this! Thank you for sharing, warm greetings from the Netherlands.
