Cafe Navona on 2nd go-around

Just walking through, picking out negative shapes, trying not to work too hard at it. I am always surprised at the colors things end up; I certainly did not intend to use quite so much purple or for this to be a cool painting. But since this is a warm-up practice piece, I can't be worrying about all that. My goal is to aim for a fuss-free application, put it down an leave it alone and move on.

Waiting for a Table


24 x 30 watercolor

The second of the commissions mentioned yesterday. I was going to title this "Dogs Eat Free" but that doesn't seem to be universally true in this country. I have seen it in Italy, where the dog sits in a chair and has his own dish at the table!
