The Kirk

The rain surprised me while painting The Kirk last Saturday, you can notice the rain drops on the watercolor. I like the texture!

I was so fascinated by the view that I painted again at home. Both paintings are very similar but different at the same time. It is a nice view of the city. Probably I will paint it a few more times.

  1. i found your blog through the independent.ca and have been enjoying all of your paintings of beautiful old st. john's, omar. of these two, i think i prefer the subtlety of the colours and the drama of the clouds in the bottom one.

  6. In my opinion, the colors of the second one are more in tune with the environment and atmosphere.
    Anyway, all your works emanate a splendid light.
