Watercolor paintings

Day: September 4

Audiobook I listened to: The Inmate by Freida McFadden

Nukkekoti 3/25 had an article about Leila Finnlund's miniature watercolor paintings. How pretty her work is! Inspired by this, I chose to try my luck (I'm terrible at traditional visual arts) on painting a few landscapes and figs. I had a lot of empty frames to fill!

For a while I thought about just printing some watercolor pieces from Pinterest, but that's kind of dishonest, isn't it? Besides, the viewer will immediately see the difference between 80 gsm copy paper and professional watercolor paper, and I couldn't forgive myself for doing things the easiest way again. 

I wanted to make paintings that'll suit the atmosphere of a British country house. 

One above washing machine… 

…and another over fireplace.

It's still pretty empty upstairs.
