Garlic

Garlic

6.5" x 6.5" Watercolor on Paper

I really enjoyed painting this garlic. I loved putting all those different colors on the thin garlic skin and still "see" it white.

I hope you are all having a great summer! We just came back from the mountains in the Suisse Alps - what a beautiful country this is! I'm really getting into the mood of painting mountain landscape, for a change!

I am posting today a painting identical to the one I painted yesterday. Actually, I painted two nearly identical subjects thinking of choosing the best one to post. It happens that I like them both, so there! I hope you like it, too.

Summer Bounty II

(Yellow and Cherry Tomatoes in Japanese Bowl)

7" x 7" Watercolors on Paper

Here is my second take on the "harvest" of tomatoes from my potted tomato plants. Let's see how many I can paint - hopefully many because there are lots of them ripening in my sun drenched terrace, right now.

I was itching to go back to painting after not being able to do it for a couple of weeks. It's wonderful to be back at it! I hope you are all having a great Summer, too!

To the blogging artists out there: Jeff Hayes is doing a painting giveaway this month. He is one of my favorite daily painters, an awsome artist, and I think it's worth it checking him out, if you haven't done so, yet.

Summer Bounty (Cherry tomatoes in Sake Cup)

Summer Bounty ( Cherry Tomatoes in Japanese Sake Cup)

7" x 7" Watercolor on paper

It's been a busy and pleasurable Summer for us in Geneva with lots of activities with our daughter. It is also a pleasure to get a window of opportunity to paint in between these activities.

I have 3 tomato plants (cherry, regular and yellow) in planters on my terrace and they are doing very well, with lots of tomatoes ripening in the sun. They taste delicious and they are perfect "models" for my Summer paintings... I hope you like my first painting from a series of tomato paintings I would like to do this summer.

It's been a great summer, but I've had so little time to paint with so many activities going on. I'm posting these daylilies that I painted from flowers from my garden, last year. I hope you like them!

20" x 15" Watercolor on Paper

I showed this painting, along with many others, at the WTO - World Trade Organization show in 2007 and it is now hanging in my atelier. I decide to post it because I haven't had much of chance to paint these days. With my 11-year-old daughter on vacation, we are always on the go, enjoying the outdoors and having very little time for painting. Well, I do have a couple of small paintings I'm working on, so I shall be posting them soon.

Cardon in Bloom

Cardon in Bloom

6.5" x 10" Watercolor on paper

When in season, you can find cardon stalks being sold in grocery stores all over town in Geneva. You can also find them pickled so that you can savor them all year round. It's a region delicacy. I found this beautiul bloom at the Botanical Gardens in Geneva, a few weeks ago, and fell in love with it.

My daughter has been on Summer vacation and, therefore, I have not been painting and posting as often. We have been busy having fun - hiking, biking, swimming, travelling, making wonderful memories.... I shall go back to posting on a regular basis in the fall when she goes back to school - as a middle schooler! Meanwhile, I shall post whenever I get a chance to paint in between our comings and goings. I hope you are all having a great summer!

These were really delicious cherries! They came from the store because our cherry tree in the backyard does not seem to have produced any this year. Most probably, the cold weather during the flowering season was harmful to the fruits...

This is the last of 3 paintings of these delicious pair of bell peppers. I handbuilt and fired the plate in the painting some time ago, when I lived in Tokyo. I hope you like it!

Bell peppers are translucent in the sunlight and are lovely to paint. I have one more set of these "friends" bellpeppers tomorrow.....

Summer has been wonderful here in Geneva, Switzerland. The temperatures are in the high 70s and we have lots of sunshine, as well. What more does one need?
