The guesthouse
The rain took a break day before yesterday, so I went out painting. I had to rush it a bit, since the wind was a bit too cold for my liking, but if felt good to get some work done.
The building is a guesthouse/restaurant nearby our summer house, it used to be the headquarters of the saw mill on the island during the first half of the 20th century.
20 x 20 cm, pencil and watercolours on Saunders Waterford watercolour paper.
lovely…the blues and shadows reflect the much welcomed sun =)
I hope that this is a proper "I'm putting this on my wall" type painting because it is sOo perfectly, hangably beautiful.
I can never think of the right superlatives to comment on your work, Nina. Suffice it to say, I'm never disappointed when I come to your blog! This is great.
You really caught that summer sunshine…what a wonderful building!
I wish you would post an "in progress" painting so we can "see how she does it" I am always thrilled to see something new on your blog.

Fabulous, you impart such soul into the buildings you paint – I can feel that refreshing breeze along with the bright sunshine!!
Oh, this is beautiful! So fresh and such light you captured.
OOOOh to breathe in that fresh cool air…Beautiful Nina!
Super. I love it. I have been too busy to look at everyone's blogs lately. Dropping by to see this is like a breath of fresh air!
Beautiful Nina..lovely shadows. It looks so cool and inviting!
