Right after I came from holidays, a friend told me about a watercolour course that was going to take place in our town, organised by an art gallery that had recently opened. I've been wanting to visit this gallery for some time, but the holidays came in between, so I hadn't had the chance to do it yet. So I just joined two good things together: I enrolled in the course and I finally visited the gallery before going in my first class and I must say I really liked the amazing and exquisite wood and metal sculptures of João Ferreira (just take a look at this one and this one), and the beautiful watercolours of Manuel Ferreira, who happens to be our teacher (you can see one of them here). The picture above shows the first (and so far only) work I did during the course. It is a view of the old town, inside the castle walls. The house on the far right was made up by me, to replace an ugly one that is actually there. One of the good things about painting and drawing is that you can change reality as you see fit!
As pedras do muro estão deslumbrantes! Parabéns!
ReplyDeletea aguarela está fabulosa!! obrigado por partilhares o teu delicado olhar sobre o q nos rodeia...
ReplyDeleteBeautiful water color. It looks like a perfect medium for you. I have always wanted to take a watercolor class. Maybe I will one of these days.
ReplyDeleteA transparência da aguarela distingue-a de outros processos. Este belo trabalho e' mais uma prova.
