A5, PITT ink, watercolor and Neocolor II wax crayons |
This cozy house was my home during my week in London. First floor. First class hospitality in welcoming city. I am so full with images I need to paint of beautiful London. I am so full with warmth I received from London. Nice weather. Gorgeous historical decorations. Smiling people. Delicious food.
I made photos of menu sheets in restaurants, I even thought about stealing the menu pages for reference when back at home. I was buying cook books. What was that? I do not know. Maybe the "stuff" word in the blog's name will get wide meaning soon. Or I am trying to keep the aftertaste of the city this way.
Why do I write about this impression of London? Well, I need to start somewhere. And to keep the fullness of London days in my heart as long as I can.
I missed you posts very much, I will read them all for sure.

ReplyDeletewaiting for more about London trip...
Ура, ты вернулась, и судя по всему, довольна! Не скажешь, что там декабрь, похоже на март. Почти грачи прилетели. Не мало недели в Лондоне?
ReplyDeleteIrina, London is one of the cities I love for its vibrancy.. this sketch is really nice, I can imagine your excitement to put down your memories in color!
ReplyDeleteHi Irina, your work brought me back of some years when I went to London several times for my work, very nice and interesting city, I miss it.

I love the graphic quality of this lovely drawing Irina. My sister used to live in a house just like that in London..with the big basement windows. Happy Christmas x
ReplyDeleteYou sure do travel often for such a busy lady! :-) Thank you for remembering my birthday! I've decided to stop counting.
ReplyDeleteYour "mult-media" drawing, watercolor, wax crayons and ink (I'm out of breath) painting is really cool! I like it a lot.
