Years ago I've spent a gorgeous time at Cornwall and since these days I wish I could live there forever. The longing was always a great impulse for painting for me, since my very first steps with watercolor, also years ago. This one was one for my sky- and cloud exercises.

No hurry, autumn is here and so the wide-open landscape of my homeland Lower Saxony shows its best side. Amazing colors, great skies or poetic foggy horizons. Best moods for watercolor painters. I hope you enjoy this lovely season as much as I do.

Rose hips are one of the motives I paint every year again. I love these bright red dots in nature and garden, these last farewell of the lovely roses.

Sky- and Cloud studies, preferably daily are a part of the really good tips for the future by Thomas Schaller. And so I try my best to full fill this plan.

Painting cityscapes, streets, and urban scenes have always fascinated me. For many years, I have accumulated an infinite number of ideas, sketches, and photographs and I will try to transform more of them into watercolors. Reduced and focused on the essential moment and yet narrating a story. That's the plan and I hope it succeeds.

This is another watercolor after my own photography of the lakes Meissendorf, Germany during the wonderful watercolor workshop with Thomas Schaller at Chicago. For years I thought about painting this motive and Thom created such a great demo with a "bull eye" start for a soft background wash, that I decided immediately to select this as my motive. Thoms demo you can find in the collage below.
