flower bath
I had surgery yesterday morning…this week’s illustration friday topic is somewhat of an ironic coincidence. I have always found baths to be therapeutic…in my case however, this is more wishful thinking –not allowed to bathe for at least 2 weeks!
Since I had already sketched several drawings which involved sleep (the greatest remedy of all), I decided to sketch a quick painting on my new Moleskine watercolour book again. Its a great format, in case people were wondering. The paper doesnt buckle so much even if painting wet-on-wet! I imagined it would buckle a lot more…but it could be that moleskine has pre-stretched their paper before binding them together as watercolour blocks. I highly recommend these if you have a little extra cash sitting around. It can take almost all mediums; yes, even oil 
I have to thank my friend Natalia for giving me this last February.
I’ve also been working on a few things lately, just havent gotten around to posting them all. Maybe sometime this week, I will post a slideshow of my current paint projects. Right now, I have to be a good girl and try to recover before tomorrow morning –work awaits…good night from Munich.
Sehr schönes Bild. Es hat mich gleich dazu inspiriert ein Bad zu nehmen. So fresh and so Clean!
Gott sei Dank dass du wieder sauber bist! Ich dachte ich könnte ein bischen Aroma Therapie dazu brauchen
Oh no, I totally forgot about your surgery :/
Beautiful picture though… is that paper a dark color originally?
Wow! you two respond like bush fire! Thanks moof. The paper is white watercolour paper. I totally recommend it if you want to play around with your paints
Sorry to learn about your surgery. I pray you have a speedy and full recovery. Let us know if there is anything we can do to help you recover.

Hazel, I love it. I can smell the fragrance of the flowers and their vibrant colours. Floating bubbles everywhere. So relax and calm.
