Pink Powder of Venice

Venice is the most romantic city in Italy. In this quite and peaceful place you can live forever with your beloved. You hold each other's hand and look at the pink Venetian Lagoon landscape in the warm shine of the dusk.

The spring is felt everywhere here! The warm sun, the flowers' smell, the birds' songs....It's amazing how everything has changed so quickly. This spring seems to be fantastic and full of colour of joy! Just enjoy it! :)

P.S. Small quick sketch of a bush's pink flower.

Autumn

This year autumn offers an unexpected color show! Personally, I tried to spend my free time enjoying the warm weather and relaxing with my pastels outside. Take a look what has been obtained :)

Moldavian landscape

What can be more pleasant for the soul then enjoying a middle summer scenery from your native country?!
Probably, it depends, but personally for me this is associated with peace and happiness. I'd spent my childhood in a small village in the heart of Moldova, and the local landscapes penetrated deeply in my soul. There was a happy and carefree time. So, I can't hide the excitement of admiring a piece of paradise!

It's so glad to admire when it is in blossom, because this is Gladiolus. :)

Summer Sketchbook: Favorite color (part 2)

My favorite color is yellow. Why? Because it makes me smile every time, and it gets up my mood anywhere I see it. It has an energizing effect on me. Probably an artist wouldn't have to like a specific color, but I can not resist in front of beautiful natural yellow of wheat fields, sun-flowers fields, meadows, steppes, forests in fall and all kind of springs flowers.
Here are some quick sketches of yellow cone-flowers.
