The whole world is celebrating Jane Austen's 250th Birthday, and so I do. I decided to paint a series about her wonderful stories, which I have enjoyed in several film versions. This second painting, a scene with Marianne Dashwood sitting at the seaside from the film "Sense and Sensibility" is inspired by Blanca Álvarez Sanchez lovely tutorial on Patreon.
Painting wet-in-wet is very challenging for me at any time, and I struggle with this technique repeatedly.

I wasn't satisfied with the original painting on the encaustic board, so I tried washing off the pigment. Unfortunately, that only worked very poorly. I then primed the board again with Qor Aquarelle Ground. That worked even worse, and it resulted in a lot of vertical lines. However, as I thought about this motif, I realized the lines would fit the subject well.

Trying out new colors is always a special pleasure. In this case, it was indescribably beautiful, as the colors are surprising in their granulation and color scheme.

This marvelous ancient fishing village is one of the most attractive places at the Costa Brava and I've lost my heart at first glance.

French Rivera, Ile de Porquerolles The picturesque island is one of the four islands of Iles d'Hyeres and most likely, France’s best-kept secret - ok maybe it’s not so secret. But Porquerolles has remained throughout this time, unspoiled. I've visited this heaven on earth several times and can't wait to see it again. This painted view shows the gorgeous look on the coastline you have from many spots on it.
