Juicy watermelon

Today I woke up to the birds' singing, which means the spring is knocking on the door! Being in an excellent mood, I hope you are all doing well and staying in good spirits. This small 7''x10'' watercolor was inspired by the morning sunshine and the fresh air coming through my window.



By the way, have you seen the Google's new art project already? If not, you should surely take a look at this. "Explore museums from around the world, discover and view hundreds of artworks at incredible zoom levels, and even create and share your own collection of masterpieces" - that what they offer now! Isn't it amazing?! I've just spent a couple of hours on that website, and still can't stop browsing it.

  3. Scrumptious!
    Sorry butterflies, but I want you off and I want to sink my teeth in it. That's how much it reminds me of summer - which we are missing right now!

  5. Your art never fails to make me say 'OH WOW!' And with a big smile on my face! I love your art SO much! I'd gladly hang any of it on my wall. I LOVE this one - It's right up my street. I wonder if I will ever be as good at watercolour as this...

  6. Dear Maria,
    That's what I am eating on daily right now!! Ah, so gorgeous and cute work. I fell in love with this work at once. Regarding the Google's new project, what a coincidence! I saw it at my illustrator friend(in Japan)'s blog today. Globalization.
    Cheers, Sadami

  7. A watermelon watercolor! Good ... your watermelon has seeds ... those are the kind of watermelons that taste the best. This watercolor reminds me of my summertime birthday and really makes me smile. That said, I might like your Winter Owl just a little bit more. Fantastic work!
