Watercolor – Sailboats 2009

Today, I tried another sailboat motive using a flat brush. I think it came out quite well…

Watercolor – Amöneburg

This is a watercolor painting I did last weekend during an upcoming storm outside near Amöneburg. Amöneburg is a small city nearby Marburg that lies on top of a hill rising from a flat landscape.

Watercolor – Walchensee

During the painting seminar with Gerhard Hillmayr, we went to the Walchensee wone day. The Walchensee is a lake nearby the Lake Kochel. It is known by many paintings by Lovis Corinth, who had a house at this lake. We did a painting of some colorful trees standing at its shores.

Watercolor Painters Ring

I started a Watercolor community at Ringsurf which is called Watercolor Painters Ring. If you are operating a watercolor site and are interested in joining this community, please follow the link below and add your site. You are then able to use one of the ring banners and hopefully this generates some traffic to your site.

Watercolor – Allendorf Quarry

Last weekend, we went on a walk around Allendorf (Lumda) and admired the colorful autumn trees. At a place where we could see the big quarry nearby, I did a sketch which I transferred into this watercolor painting later.

Watercolor – Kottmüller Allee (Alley)

This is a famous place in Murnau, Bavaria called Kottmüller Allee (Alley). It has been painted by Gabriele Münter who lived there with Wassily Kandinsky during the beginning of the 20th century. We painted the place during the seminar with Gerhard Hillmayr in the beginning of october 2009. The leaves were already getting yellow and brown…

Watercolor – Loisach Moos Huts

One afternoon during the seminar, we painted at the Loisach Moos, a swampy area near Kochel am See in Bavaria. There are many huts in that area which we tried to capture in an abstract way.
