Starry night

Last night my step daughter,my daughter and I went outside to watch the meteor shower.The night sky was just gorgeous.Not even a cloud, just huge bright stars and the song of the crickets.
I could see one shooting star,my step daughter saw a couple only my little one could not see any.
She was sad but she still needs to learn a lot about patience.Anyway she saw a lot of interesting things this night-The Big Dipper,several aeroplane lights,the light of a satellite and a baby frog.
This sketch is an attempt to draw my daughter drawing in her sketchbook.The resemblance is a little bit off.Here she looks older than she is actually.Watercolor pencils.

At The Park 2

This is another one of the series "At the park".I sketched it almost at the same time as the first one but it took me forever to paint it in color.I sketched it from life at the school park when I picked up my daughter from school.Here she is helping another girl to swing.I used an ink pen Millennium,watercolor pencils and a water brush.

At The Park

I drew this sketch at the beginning of this month.I went to pick up my daughter from school with the intention to take her for a walk as the fall day was wonderful,warm and bright.We could not go farther than the school park which was bursting with kids and parents enjoying the beautiful weather.When my little one went to play with the other kids I noticed this girl reading her book bathed by the bright afternoon sunshine and did a quick sketch of her.I used an ink pen Millennium to do the sketch and later at home I finished it with watercolor pencils and a water brush.

The Pair

This is a little piece with pastel on Strathmore paper.The image is 5 by 7.I decided it would be better to concentrate on small simple paintings till I get more familiar with the media.
Pears are my favourite kind of fruit and I also like to paint them because of their shape and color.I hope they look juicy and delicious to you too.
Actually I did this painting two weeks ago. I am kind of out of ideas and inspiration at the moment. Maybe because I fought a lingering cold for the last two weeks and on top of that I caught a pink eye from my daughter which was not fun either.
