Blue studio
Here is the watercolor start of studio 2. I am going to let it sit a couple of days and then work more on the shadowing. I’ll repost it and studio 1 when I am happy with the final touches. I like the Japanese maple in the corner. It adds a wonderful pop of warm reds and muted greens. As for the studio, I am sure the choice of paint was all Ruth’s. As an artist, she would have considered what she wanted to see from her kitchen, walk up to, and work inside of. She has been a remarkable artist over a 60 year career.

Love the painting. Pretty keen on the studio, too!

Her studios and gardens would delight any artist. I always envied her printing presses, but not the lack of air conditioning. LOL

Totally beautiful!!!!! Oh, Ruth, the color in this really draws me in. I want to go there!

You would really like her work spaces and the setting. You’d really like her, too. A more kind and giving person cannot be found. Jon was lucky to know her and her husband while growing up.

Beautiful! I love the blue and you don’t seem to use it much for buildings. 🙂

You are absolutely right. I don’t use much blue. I have very little blue in my house. I guess I prefer to live with reds and greens. I occasionally make an effort to expand the blue experience. LOL
