David Meldrum Sketch Watercolour Watercolouring

My first tree!

A Tree by David Meldrum
The great thing about beginning something, like having art as a hobbie for instance, is that there are so many firsts! Like drawing this tree, I’ve never painted a tree before, at least I don’t remember ever doing one. I am currently on holidays, relaxing after a very busy period at work, coming down, looking forward to having a few days to sketch, sketch, sketch.

acylic painting Alexa Meade Portrait

Alexa Meade creates acrylic illusions

Alexa Meade paints with acrylics directly on human flesh creating the illusion of painterly portraits. Interesting twist to portrait painting.

John Singer Sargent

Rosina by John Singer Sargent

John Singer Sargent, I like his work, I like his official web site too but I wonder is there another site out there that is even better? – With superior resolutions and with no copyright protection covering one third of each image. The picture featured here is called, “Rosina” and I haven’t downloaded it from the official site. PUH!
Seriously though, if you know of a better John Singer Sargent site than this do please let me know.

I like Behzah Bagheri’s  loose sketching style. There are many high quality, quick sketches to be found on his Flickr page.
