Backyard Hare

I painted this one from the photograph.  This time I used India ink first then I added watercolor paints. Complementary tones work well here. I used yellow ocher, light brown, little bit of red, Prussian blue and deep green. 

We have a lot of wild rabbits at our backyard. Whenever I'm walking my dog I keep my camera handy. The rabbits are not very fearful. I have a feeling that they figured it out that the dogs are on leash. 

The more rabbits there are, the more foxes can prey on them, so also there are lots of foxes in our neighborhood. They are rather hard to photograph because they are extremely shy.

Magnolia

Magnolia trees have large and beautiful flowers. This particular one grows at my neighbor's front-yard. Also flowers have nice smell, unfortunately I can't paint it :)

Interesting fact: Fossilized specimens of plants belonging to the Magnolia family have been found dating to 95 million years ago. They appeared before bees did. The flowers evolved later to encourage pollination by beetles. 
It is so hard to imagine world without flowers and bees, isn't it?

One Happy Window

My watercolor painting was inspired by an old town of Katowice. The real building is much more beautiful. My version is crooked and I gave up on details. I was lucky to grow up next to such jewels.
