Mountain Village


I made this little sketch some days ago. It is based on a photo I found in a leaflet about the Alps. I would have preferred to do a "plein-air"-study, but had no time for it...

Ich machte diese Skizze vor einigen Tagen. Als Vorlage nahm ich ein Photo aus einem Reiseheftchen über die Alpen. Ich hätte natürlich lieber eine Skizze irgendwo draußen vor Ort gemacht, aber dazu hatte ich keine Zeit...

a peaceful scene. I like the way you use a lot of blue in your paintings.and those little drops of paint.
