Hello dear Steemians,


 

Back to the North from our Holidays in Old Europe. The passed like it never had been there. I started my work today and it was the feeling that everything was just yesterday. I am wondering how much days off I need in order to feel like the holiday was long enough.

Anyway, if you remember I did not have any of my paints this time on holiday but only my pastel pencils so back home I thought to try a watercolor painting.

I always loved the historical features of Venice and now with the high water level it is a danger that we may lose this unique place. We have to try our best to prevent it and to do what we, every single of us can to fight climate pollution otherwise such view will be only captured images for our future generation.

The beauty of architecture and the unique as well as very recognizable shape of Gondolas.

 

 

That is why here it is my work.

Holidays are always interesting and could make you wish they would never come to an end. But time waits for no one. One needs to go back and do the needful in order to put good on the table.
I'm glad yours was funfilled and you are back to work.

You made your sky and river to be blue which is different from the orginal photo. That's creativity.

Hi Max, you are right we have to work to be able to live and on other hand that fills our life with experience and events too.

I asked my husband what color to chose that he said that such beige-apricot reminds him Australia after their fire and that comment was enough to chose clear blue colors :)
