House in Zaanse Schans. Direct Watercolor. 12"x9", 140lb Arches Cold Press.

Watercolor painting of a house in Zaanse Schans, Netherlands. A single level dwelling with a tall, sloping roof in orange tile occupies two-thirds of the middle, horizontal band of the view. The house has dark, blue-gray wood siding, and two elongated windows in white trim with red shutters, opened. The top two panes of each window are covered in a green yellow light, while the bottom panes are in shadow. The house has an attached, windowless garage in the same siding and orange roofing. Ochre chimneys rise from both the garage and house, and a thin sliver of a white trim facade stands to the right. Bright sunlight from the right casts angled shadows from the chimneys and garage extension.

I've been sketching a lot in blue lately.

New artwork and more thoughts on my process:

An ink and watercolor sketch of an aqueduct that's sitting on top of a hill, surrounded by trees and landscape. The sketch is painted entirely in blue.

Just vibing in the sunshine 🎶 ☀️

So this was supposed to be a study but i went and did my own thing (more like the watercolors went and did their own thing as usual)

watercolour illustration of a young person laying in a pickup truck bed in the sunshine, vibing to music. They have long red hair (Jasper!) and red shorts and red shirt, there is kitkat warp and coca cola cans, the pickup truck is red too, but the shadow is blue.

Rue da Madalena, Lisbon. Direct Watercolor. 12"x9", 140lb Arches Cold Press.

After a dark, wet December in The Hague, man, did I need that wonderful sun in Portugal.

Watercolor painting of a building along Rue da Madalena in Lisbon, Portugal. A pastel yellow building with two floors displays two windows with white molding on the second floor. The window on the left has an arched top and flayed base, while the window on the right has a rectangular molding. Both reside above gray awnings that hang over the first story. Shadows from a bright sun are cast diagonally from the left, downward to the right while a shop entrance to the left reveals a dark interior with some fliers and flashes of merchandise. To its right is a large display window covered mostly in advertisements. In the foreground is an ochre sidewalk slightly risen from a purple-gray cobbled road.

Calle Real, El Almendral. Direct Watercolor. 12"x9", 140lb Arches Cold Press.

Watercolor painting of Calle Real within El Almendral, Granada, Spain. A thin cobble stoned street curves from the left to the distance on the right. White stucco buildings on the left are covered in orange light from a darkening afternoon sun. A large purple shadow from buildings on the right is cast along the street and lower parts of the buildings to the left. Towards the end of the street are indescript buildings in dapple light while a parked car on the right buries itself in shadows. An unlit street light hangs in the upper right, receiving wires from poles residing on buildings to the left.

Today’s painting. I tried for a higher horizon and a more realistic approach. Colors: ultramarine, cobalt teal, Hansa, raw sienna, burnt sienna, green gold. Brushes: 8, 2, rigger.

This watercolor shows a stream wandering through a meadow. Small trees are in the background and one large tree grows on the right.

Silly owl!

Very colorful watercolor owl leans over as if to say "whooooo?". Super quick sketchy ink and color.

30 min gouache chicken sketch no 26. Again done using only red, white and black paint (except for the eye, which has a bit of yellow added), but this time the red was English Red rather than Scarlet Red as in the two before.

I'm quite happy how this one turned out :)

Along Grote Markt. Direct Watercolor. 10"x8", 140lb Arches Cold Press.

Watercolor painting of buildings along the Grote Markt in The Hague. Two buildings abutt each other, with the building to the right taking up roughly 2/3 of the scene. The building to the left has two stories, with its top story in yellow ochre stucco and revealing a single window reflecting back the blue sky and shadows; its ground floor is white cement with a closed, windowless door below a dark gray awning. Angles shadows run along the awning and door recess from the sunlight coming from the right. The building to the right has a bright red brick second floor revealing a single window tucked under a yellow and orange striped awning. Its ground floor storefront with large open windows covered fliers sits in the shade of a large awning with the same yellow and orange stripes. In the foreground are various dappled objects representing chairs, benches and general debris.

Bon, on va dire que c’est fini jusqu’à ce que j’ai l’occasion de le montrer à la personne qui me l’a commandé.
Un jour je ferai une BD pour expliquer comment j’ai fini avec cette foutue commande

Ruychaverstraat Corner. Direct Watercolor. 10"x8", 140lb Arches Cold Press.

Watercolor painting of an apartment building on the corner of Ruychaverstraat, The Hague. A large, assuming red brick building stands its place below a blue sky and over a small lamp post sprouting from the sidewalk in front. An arched, recessed entry resides to the left, flanked by tall slender windows to its left and a broad window to its upper right. The brick building is split on the third floor with a small slated roof and dormer window. A strong light source from the upper right casts shadows in the arched entry and shallow eaves.

Ces créatures n’ont toujours pas de nom, mais je les appelle des « birbichettes ». On m’a dit qu’elles avaient absolument pas des têtes à s’appeler des birbichettes donc si vous avez une idée n’hésitez pas à proposer

Une case de BD à l’aquarelle. On y voit des créatures rondes dotées de crêtes et avec des pattes musclées de toutes tailles courir vers le lecteur tandis que des vagues roses les poursuivent.

You and me together is a watercolor painting in shades of indigo, teal and white in square format by artist Karen Kaspar. A black cat and a white cat seen from above are cuddling together. They form a circle like the yin and yang symbol on an abstract watercolor background in teal and indigo.
