Gates of Andalucia, watercolor, 40 x 24 cm |
Continuing with a previous subject. It is apparent that I was quite impressed by the doors and gates in Granada and the Anadalucian villages I visited and I took many photos of them.
The little sketch below was the only successful one I managed to do without a pencil drawing - not an easy task when doing geometric shapes. At least for me straight lines are a challenge. I've always admired watching some artists just running the brush through the paining, creating a perfect straight line. It takes skill, a steady hand and lots of guts...

These are lovely paintings. Great textures too. What lovely memories of your visit
I admire your steady hand painting that door without pencil lines! These gates are such a lovely subject, and so beautifully painted, Blaga! I enjoy the series!
I admire your perseverance in developing the travel memories, creating after each trip a magnificent collection of artistic memories! Congratulations on the beautiful doors, with or without design! They have strong presence and atmosphere!
See the firm hand with which the masters do things for me is always something extraordinary ... Their advice is to try to do just lines (vertical and horizontal parallel) to get the professional hand. But I have not yet done!
Blaga: Tus trabajos son excelentes, con lineas depuradas y coloresarmónicos, preciosos!!!! Felicitaciones
Thank you, Polly, Judy, Rita and Mercedes for your nice words and encouraging feedback!
what wonderful paintings of the buildings you have seen, I admire you painting all those arches in previous posts!
Bravo pour toute cette série andalouse. Je retrouve la chaleur et la lumière de mes vacances là-bas. J'aime beaucoup le travail sur Cordoue.
Las puertas son fantásticas, Andalucía es maravillosa y has sabido captarla estupendamente, felicitaciones!
Thank you, Sharon, Christine and Mari! I am glad if I managed to bring some of the atmosphere of these places to you
