This week, your posts from Maine have been a great mini watercolor workshop, and just this afternoon I did a small water lily piece after an Adirondack canoe venture.<br /><br />I am a lover of all things parisien, and originally saw your blog when I was looking for Something, now forgotten, in regard to Paris or French products. It’s very interesting to follow the blog connections that exist right now in the art, food, photography and interior design fields that have overlapping circles and few boundaries.<br /><br />Your beautiful (and very inexpensive!) watercolors are inspirational to me, a sometime painter; I live in a pretty, quirky, and rather old city, Albany, New York, and I see daily beautiful details that are calling out to be remembered and appreciated in the same fashion that you evoke in your Paris pieces. But we don’t have the endless avenues of patisseries, nor the high street style, that belong only to the French.<br /><br />I hope your Maine experience has been wonderful, relaxing, and delicious. So much beauty in the world.<br /><br />Votre nouvelle amie,<br /><br />SallySallynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-17481839736475269272010-07-23T23:39:46.446-04:002010-07-23T23:39:46.446-04:00I think you done well with the cupcakes.

I get adding color, but I don't understand how you can color a page with a complete (mostly) wash of one color, and then end up, in the final photo/water color with MORE white? The final painting has a lot of white on it, way more than when he started . . .. hmmm.... <br />magic, <br />rkSF Robynnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-86361916771327803132010-07-23T15:17:51.663-04:002010-07-23T15:17:51.663-04:00THEY ARE NOT MUFFINS!

What I noticed from ...Beautiful place to be, Carol!<br />What I noticed from the watercolors, they are not a copy of what the landscape is. They are reinterpretation of the scene. Agree?<br />Like this one today, the final work is not what was there to begin with.<br />I guess I have to learn this rule! Because sometimes I try to paint EXACTLY what I see and it gets very laborious! Or frustrating...<br />The food looks very good! Enjoy! And pack me some of your cupcakes and put them in the mail for me, please!<br />Take care!Simonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00827269886498919471noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-27698485802343479962010-07-23T10:12:05.971-04:002010-07-23T10:12:05.971-04:00I had to laugh when I read this post today...last ...I had to laugh when I read this post today...last week blueberries and Jiffy corn muffin mix inspired me to make blueberry corn bread ~ delish!
