"Venetian Glass Blowers" Large Watercolor painting.


Merry Christmas to all. I've missed out on being organised this Christmas (nothing new!), though this is mainly due to working on a large watercolour (20x27"). I'm trying to get it done for a competition/exhibiton.
I finally finished it today. I started it on the 10th December.
All I can see are the flaws!
It's title "Venetian Glass Blowers" - for reference I used a photo taken a long time ago of some men at work - a chance discovery in Venice. I hope to go back there one day.
Anyway, here it is...

Regards,
Jillian

Angel screenprint.


Yesterday I submitted 3 works in for an exhibition that was judged.
2 'traditional' works were rejected.
The good news is that one was accepted. It was a 'first' for me - submitting a screenprint - or something 'different'. I suspect that if I had painted this, it would not have been accepted. However, since it was a screenprint, it was.
"An Angel To Watch Over You"

Maybe I should enter into a debate on art. I know where my thoughts are.
What do YOU think?

Regards,
Jillian

This will be the only print I ever do of this.
