Paintings by Linda, LoveItaly and John Taylor. (And a few flowers by Dubonnet.)
Some paintings just make you happy. They don’t have to be that good. Don’t even have to have a very interesting subject matter. But they do have something bright and sparkling.
Today I have three Flickr sets with just that quality:
Linda paints Gods creation
Linda is trying to “reflect the beauty of Gods creation in her work”. She indeed paints a lovely picture of her world. She paints mostly cityscapes and paintings of her cats.

Hummingbird by Linda
Birds by LoveItaly
On any given day LoveItaly sees 25 varieties of birds and she loves to paint them.
In this set you’ll find some 30 watercolors of different birds painted with a light touch and almost opaque colors.
John Taylors oils and pastels
After his retirement John Taylor took up painting as a way of occupying himself. He really likes the bright colours of garden scenes, water reflections and effects of light and shade. He paints a lot of landscapes like this beautiful pond with a swan.
Flowers by Dubonnet
While looking for nice paintings this morning I came across this beautiful but small set of flowers on flickr.

When painting you can paint one color and place an other color on top. Since you can make your paint a bit thicker you never realy see the under color but it does change the feel.
But it’s clear that that technique doesn’t work when drawing with pencil. Even if I try to put more green on the paper you would always see that there is an other color beneath and it changes the green.
