Fenêtre en Provence

Fenêtre en Provence, watercolor on Arches paper, 9" x 12"
I painted Fenêtre en Provence from a free tutorial on the Web.

The original, whose title is Blue Window, is by Allan Kirk, a British painter who lives in the South of France.

My first wash was somewhat darker than the example, so I had to up all the other tones as well. But I'm quite happy with the result.

Other exercises are for sale on Allan Kirk's own website. At $4.50 each, they are very reasonable, and a fine way to learn to paint in this impressionist style. I plan to get a few.
