Dear Friends,
Sharing a floral sketch done this month. June always seems to have so many flowers blooming at once. It is hard to decide which ones to capture.
These were sketched directly in the garden with a micron pen. Later a bit of watercolor was added in the studio. Canson makes a great Montval Field Watercolor book. Seems to accept light washes well without buckling. Mine is a 10x7 with 50 pages . This size suits my taste because it is easy to carry outdoors.
It is hard to realize that the last week of this beautiful month is here. Where did June go?
Hugs Debbie
Debbie, your floral sketches are just beautiful!! The sketchbook seems to be just made for you.
ReplyDeleteAnd, no, I can't believe it is almost July either! Reminds us to stay in the moment a bit (a lot) more.
I agree with Chris, Debbie! Your sketches are just gorgeous! Thank you so much for sharing, your posts always fill my heart with joy!
ReplyDeleteOh they're both so pretty Debbie - you've a lovely way with watercolours. It's always such a happy feeling to be able to draw your garden delights!
ReplyDeleteYes, it's really amazing how quickly this year is going.
Cheers and enjoy the rest of your week :D)
I too cannot believe the month is already over, I feel it only lasted a couple of weeks! Your sketches are beautiful and the size of the sketchbook seems perfect to hold in your arm while studying flowers. You have a wide selection to choose from. I hope there are just as many in July so you can keep sketching!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty Debbie and I agree. What happened to June? Went to Hobby Lobby the other day and they were putting out fall, Halloween and Christmas decorations.:(
ReplyDeleteLovely floral sketches, Debbie. Nice to see your paintings.
ReplyDeleteLovely
ReplyDeleteAmazing July is so soon this year. :)
Beautiful paintings Debbie. You've got a nice light touch. Happy Painting!

Your watercolor flowers are so delicate and lovely! I like that you record the beauty of them in your book. Sometimes the most beautiful things are fleeting.
ReplyDeleteDebbie, thanks for sharing this and your last post in your backyard... Beautiful sketch and photos..
ReplyDeleteDear Debbie, I’ve no idea where June is going, but I do wish it would slow down a little so that summer would last a little longer! :)
ReplyDeleteYour sketches are beautiful. You are very talented. Hugs Barbara
Lovely floral sketches of your flowers! Painting them is a wonderful way of sharing them. Yes, another month is nearly over. Time is really flying by so quickly. We need days where we can just stop and enjoy what is in front of us. Have a great week, Debbie.
ReplyDeleteThose are beautiful sketches, Debbie. This month has just flown by at the speed of light, or so it seems...
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Victoria
Debbie-Your sketches are always so lovely and delicate. A deft hand!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy the flowers. We had such an abundance of them this season that it was hard to know where to look:) Very beautiful and lucky.
Hope your week is off to a good start.

Hola Debbie, Sus trabajos son exquisitos, sencillos y llenos de vida, en ellos se puede deducir el amor a la Naturaleza, y la felicidad de estar viviendo rodeado de esas maravillas naturales. Muy buen fin de junio y buen comienzo de Julio. Mis saludos!!
ReplyDeleteYour watercolors are so pretty, sweet and light, always really enjoy seeing your works ! Time is flying , having a hard time believing it myself how fast it goes !
ReplyDeleteWell done, Debbie. Your flower paintings get more and more beautiful. If you take pictures of them, they would make up a wonderful little photo book. Yes, June flew by, let's hope the rest of the summer slows down a bit. :)
ReplyDeleteBonjour chère amie,
ReplyDeleteJ'aime tant le mois de juin que je suis triste de m'apercevoir qu'il s'achève déjà !...
J'adore vos adorables fleurs. Un joli carnet de croquis. Merci pour ce délicieux partage.
Gros bisous 🌸
Beautiful paintings-such a lovely way to store up these days for later!
ReplyDeleteThey are sensitive and delicate and spiritual, you flower paintings...I'm not surprised....Yes, where did June go?
ReplyDeleteI could do without July and August, and happily enjoy 3 months of JUNE instead. Love Micron pens. Beautiful work Debbie!
ReplyDeleteI think you are a whiz with that micro pen. Your botanicals are a wonder with all the important parts beautifully rendered. Then, a complete switch into the watercolor washes with soft blends and lovely colors. Not everyone has that range of ability. Thanks for the heads up on the Watercolor book. I will try it.
ReplyDeleteJuly goes really fast - usually. Let is both really enjoy it.
Blessings and happy days,
I'm wondering the same thing--where did June go? Looks like you're putting the beautiful summer days to good use by sketching flowers. :)
ReplyDeleteLove your floral paintings.
