Montenegro Sketches. Cats' Bonus

Herceg Novi
 Another great advantage of outdoor sketching besides drawing practice is keep a dairy effect: when I look at the painting above, the sunny May 2nd, 2012 returns back. And I see myself on stone bench located above the amazing beauty of Savina monastery in Herceg Novi, Montenegro, I hear the birds songs and the strong scents of spring-the winner.

I have recently found new Russian sites with cats' photos. Are you in love with cats as I do? Then look here and here. And maybe you will decide to subscribe in your Google reader or whatever you use for daily blogging. Aaahhh, cats!

  3. i feel the same about photographs. when you look at the image you took years ago so many sensory memories come flooding back. i can well imagine that the time you spend in one place painting would further weave those memories into your brain to be recalled each time you view the painting. this is an outstanding observation, irina. perhaps viewers pick up on the artist's experience of place and that is why they are drawn to the painting. i'm certainly drawn to this one.
