We are already into the second month of the new year 2019. With a fresh blank sketchbook, in mid January I decided to try filling it on a daily basis. To start and for inspiration, my art supplies are being the subject of this sketchbook. I love all art supplies, so this should keep me inspired for a while!
A page out of my watercolour sketchbook. A stroll through the ByWard Market in Ottawa, my hometown. This is a 7 x 10″ ink & watercolour on Cold Press 140 lb watercolour paper.
This is my latest watercolour, finally finished it after the Christmas Holidays. I had a couple people asking if I would add Mabou’s Red Shoe Pub to my Main Street Series of paintings. You can also view this painting (along with other paintings) under “Original Watercolours” in the Menu Bar or click here. There are no reproductions (Prints) as of yet, but I will be getting some done at a later date. Let me know if you’re interested… cecilesamson@gmail.com
Before Christmas, I was commissioned to do a couple of pieces, to be given as a Christmas gift. I enjoyed doing these two paintings, both done with a story and a special meaning to go with it.
I’ve added new work to the site and it can be viewed in original acrylic paintings and in original watercolour paintings. I’m currently working on finishing more original paintings, so I hope you’ll come back again soon to check for new work being added as I go. If you have any questions please contact me at cecilesamson@gmail.com.
A pencil, ink and watercolour using the grisaille technique.
Here is one of my quick sketches done on a Wacom Intuos 3 graphic tablet. This was not taken out of an actual sketchbook, but kept in my digital sketchbook.
Please excuse the mess but eventually, I will be adding some of my artwork. Coming soon, you will find prints set in a mat and prints without mats, original paintings and other artistic creations.
So please come back soon!
