Two versions of the same night scene. The top one, which was the second one, I painted after watching one of Castagnet's videos I have. This really helps me loosen up my style and to paint faster. Well, not as loose or as fast as the master, and by no means as good :)
Both are beautiful nightscenes, Blaga! The impression of night is very good. I love watching the masters, to see how they solve problems that I encounter in painting.
Hello Blaga:) Wow these are stunning.I have them enlarged on my computer and they are amazing. Beautiful style. Did you a pre-draw first? How much time did it take to paint one? Very nice!!xx
Thank you, Rita! Alvaro is a great artist to aspire to. My result, of course, couldn't get nearly as loose or fluid as his paintings.
Thank you, Renate, for your very nice words! Yes, I definitely had a pencil drawing first. I wouldn't be able to do an architectural painting without a drawing. Each of these took me about an hour and a half to two hours. Alavro would have finished one in 15 minutes while the paint is still wet and colors can merge. Well, that's something to strive for...

Hola Blaga. muy hermosas las dos acuarelas, la última más fresca y con menos detalles, en ambas se aprecia la noche y su iluminación. Saludos!!
