This is a great sketch and an excellent idea to paint, Charlie.
I’ve noticed the title of this post and had to open and read it. I plan to do something similar – to sketch in watercolours our last summer’s trip to France.
I will also try to join doodlewash’ May 2020 painting challenge… after a while!
Hope you, your family and all…[Read more]

Thank you, Teri. Sorry for my very late response.

Thank you Liz 👍🏻

Oh well! Silly or not silly, but you definitely captured the “character” of Froot Loops 🙂 Well done!

Rod, I’m happy to inspire you and other artists here to try new ways of expressing yourselves through painting. Sometimes I paint things from my environment as they are, but stepping a bit out of one’s comfort zone poses new challenges and in dealing with those paves the way to new expressions. I think this is what every artist should aspire to.

Shar, do not get me wrong, please! Arches is the state-of-the-art, fantastic paper! Every brand paper creates different sort of visual effects and textures, and in the painting above (Two Hares), you can see how it may turn on Hahnemühle paper 🙂

Perfect chubby painting to start a new day 🙂 Very cute as always, Charlie. Well done!

Pamela, a portfolio of rabbits is certainly a good idea. Thanks 🙂

Thank you, Mary 🙂

Thank you very much, Pamela. I paint rabbits every time I have no idea what to paint, haha 🙂
