Last bit of Boston sketches ...

Top is the Public Garden; Middle is some doodles at the Boston symphony; bottom is the Library ... as for the very last one on the left ... it's not Boston ... it's a left over unfinished sketch from Pasadena City Hall. Painting watercolor in Boston is a unique experience too ... the weather is much more humid then LA. It takes a longer time for watercolor to evaporate. I draw the garden on a rainy day ... take me forever to get the blocking done LOL But on the other hand ... you don't need as much water to get a "wet" look!! HA! HA! HA!!

Well. Watercolor is not easy, so, no need to say that in rainy places it becomes more demanding. But that's not a problem for talented people like you, used to recreate your surroundings in your own unique way

I love the way you use colors, Alina.
I wish that I was good enough to do water colors like you. But alas, it's acrylic for me till I'm as disciplined.
Thanks so much for sharing.!
