Detail - Pen & Watercolour for FP Sketchbook Exchange
Finally, I have finished my pages in Glen's Flying Picture Sketchbook. Glen's theme is Flowers but you'll have to wait until Casey receives the book to see where I've put them. Meantime this is a tiny peek at my contribution.
No chance for a breather once I've sent Glen's book flying off to Casey, Nina's Polychromatic Behaviour is now waiting on my desk - it's another stunner! Photos will be posted shortly.

Robyn! This is stunning! The colors, so rich and so Italian! That slant of sunlight in between the buildings -- jsut glorious!!!!! LOVE IT!!!
And thank you for your kindest words, cara ..!!!
Hugs to you!
Here is one of your best works, IMHO!
Is there any doubt that it is Tuscany? No. And so lively. Great work, Robyn.
Ditto to what they've said Robyn
this is stunning and Glen is going to LOVE it!
Yet another gorgeous painting from Tuscany. What colors do you use to achieve the unmistakeable color of the Tuscan walls?
wow absolutely beautiful. You have a wonderful skill :) Hey i found a site you should post it on, baraaza.com
this is brilliantly done. very very neat
Saturated light! I think you're getting looser and better! :)
Gorgeous, LOVE it
Thank you all for such positive feedback. I often find the pictures I had the greatest doubts about end up better than I thought. Thank goodness. When they end up worse, that's enough to drive me back to the kitchen!
Shirley - I owe this lovely limited palette to Australian artist and teacher John Lovett. The highlighted wall is Quinacridone Gold with a touch of Alizarin Crimson. The other two colours I used are Ultramarine Bule and Phathalo Blue. It's the most successful limited palette I've tried.
You can find John's excellent watercolour DVDs at www.johnlovett.com
I absolutely love this, Robyn! I just want to step right in, walk up the lane, and disappear around the corner!
Absolutely adore the colours - thanks for sharing your palette list with us. Could only be Tuscany - you lucky girl.
gorgeous Robyn. I am wondering what the room looks like behind you. Very cozy I bet.
A wonderful Tuscan touch, Robyn. Love the rich colors!!!! I can't wait to see the whole thing!
Just discovered your blog and LOVE it! Got to start keeping an eye on it and explore further!
I am another Australian in love with Italy and esp Tuscany.
This is so beautiful Robyn, even more rich and vibrant in rela life. I saw it yesterday and I am in awe!
