inspiration all around us


I continue to lag behind the current challenge on Inspiration All Around Us.
This little still life appealed to me for it's Renoir-like colors.
I painted it twice, but put more effrot into the top one, which was coming along more nicely. I much prefer the cooler, green-tinged cast shadows to my usual bllue-violet ones.

Beautiful Laura,

I like your cast shadows in either colour. You are such a great painter.

your watercolour here gives me a "light and fresh" feeling. I like the oranges and pinks

I agree the second one has more depth to it. Great selection of warm summer colors. Thank you Laura, you just taught me to not give up and if painting does not come like I would like, I can start all over again. Irina (www.IrinaSztukowskil.com)

I do like those greenish shadows! Beautiful colors in the oranges and cherries :)
