My first painting in 2025 is something really inside my comfort zone. After cleaning up the Christmas in and outside our home, I love to decorate everything clean, fresh, and white with a small touch of Winter.

One of the many memories of my beloved grandparents is the story of when my grandpa brought a bullfinch in a birdcage into grandma's kitchen. I've never seen this beautiful bird so close, but at the same time, I begged Grandpa to set this wonderful wild animal free again. And so we did it together in our garden.

If I shouldn't be alive
When the robins come,
Give the one in red cravat
A memorial crumb.
If I couldn't thank you,
Being just asleep,
You will know I'm trying
With my granite lip!

How can people say they don't eat eggplant when God loves the color
and the French love the name? I don't understand.
- Jeff Smith
Another wonderful vegetable for the "healthy month" at Jean Haines's Online Art School www.watercolourinspiration.com and my Veggie Series. Eggplants were the first motives I have painted in watercolor many, many years ago. I love all about this wonderful fruit.

Has never been employed
Though his surpassing merit
Is freely certified
By every broom and Bridget
Throughout a Christian land.
Neglected son of genius,
I take thee by the hand.

All about Autumn is lovely, sure, as a gardener, I'm not really a friend of bindweeds, but as a painter, I love all about this flower and so I'm very pleased about our new bindweed painting lesson at Jean Haines's Online Art School. www.watercolourinspiration.com The small one was my first attempt, the final version is the one above after the wonderful suggestions of Jean to connect the two elements flowers and berries.

This is just a 30-minute warm-up/exercise, done after work on a loose background wash. I got these branches in a lovely autumnal flower bouquet and was immediately fascinated by this pink berries. Still in berry painting mood inspired by Jean Haines Online Art School. www.watercolorinspiration.

Food of Fairies

That I believe in fairytales is nothing new and so nobody wonders that I love the September theme at Jean Haines's Online Art School. All about autumn, it's colors, berries branches, the gold of leaves around is such a lovely part of nature's magic, so I can't stop playing with new and old pigment, favorites and forgotten.
