I find line drawings over watercolor very appealing and this one is no exception. I know doing this can be quite difficult. Not the watercolor part so much, because you can really get lost in watching the paint merge together. I find making the decision about the lines challenging. You make it seem so easy, however.

This is very beautiful, Andrea!

sukipoet said...: Andrea, i just love this. I can so imagine these kisses and the ensuing volcano of emotions well illustrated by the watercolor paints. So evocative and lovely. Something one would want hanging over the bed! Or opposite perhaps.; January 26, 2009 at 2:50 PM

Katiejane said...: Gosh Andrea! I really like this. If I could just learn to draw, then I could do watercolor sketches too! It's always fun to see what you draw on your watercolor washes. It's like mindless doodling, which I love. Terrific painting.; January 27, 2009 at 1:35 AM

Dianne said...: Very evocative, Andrea! I love this watercolour with the line drawing - must try this myself! I have always started with some lines and then come in with the paint, this looks much more intuitive!; January 28, 2009 at 5:39 AM
Elizabeth said...: I love the looseness of your watercolours, and the nice grainy effect some have. Wonderful, as always.

Wurzerl said...: Ja, ich weiß, ich bin ein bißerl verrutscht, aber das Bild gefällt mir so gut. Das ist wie ein Traum, es ist sooo zart gemalt und trotzdem knistert es vor erotischer Spannung. Ich glaube nicht, daß mich Chagall da mehr überzeugen hätte können!!!

Schicke Dir warme Grüße ins kalte Paris, das mit solchen Bildern durchaus erwärmt!
