Watercolor sketches

Here are some small watercolor sketches. This first one is a copy of Hopper's watercolor. Pretty isn't it.






Fabian Park Windmill


This week, we went to Fabian Park, very early in the morning. It was cloudy and gray. I did a quick study that morning, and the drawing for a later coloring.

We went back on a sunny evening and completed the second one.
