November 5, 2009 - Berlin Florist

Back to the watercolour shopfronts. I had drawn this yesterday but only got to paint today. Saw this shop while wandering around an area not to far from Alexanderplatz.

Day 8 - July 29, 2009

So I made it past a week but then disaster (see top left corner). I am never using another spiral bound sketchbook again even if the watercolour paper is made with the energy of windpower. My fault too. I should have cut it out with a knife or at least look for scissors first. If I want to reproduce it I can always "heal" it in photoshop.

Anyway, slightly more than a sketch compared to the last couple of posts. I painted this from a photograph I took of a florist in Paris. Beautiful roses everywhere.
