The watercolor is one of the most difficult forms of visual art. The quirky nature of the medium, that the painter tries to tame, but still shows a degree of freedom, is a challenge for many artists. https://edohannemawatercolourartist.wordpress.com/

How quicker you paint, how fresher the pigments show on the paper.

Winter Christmas card series in watercolour of four.
YouTube video by Edo Hannema Watercolour Art Winter Christmas card series in watercolour of four.

In this first Christmas card painting, I’m creating a peaceful snow landscape with an old Scandinavian-style red barn a classic winter scene full of charm and atmosphere.
We’ll add a few winter trees, soft falling snow, and a touch of light that makes Christmas complete.

Thank you so much Ellen, its more a Sepiatone. I make it myself from Burnt Umber and Neutral tint, so I can variate the amount of cool or warmth in the washes.

When it is that hot, washes dry before you can say A
Oliver got a excellent demo from that, how to stay fluid, but strong enough. I look it up.

If I may make a suggestion, try to paint a bit wetter.
Same strength, only more water. You make it more transparent that way.

Jazeker, de tuinen hebben wij bezocht. We waren een dagen naar Brielle, en in een boekwinkel zagen we iets over kasteeltuinen staan.
We dachten zal wel in Engeland zijn. Maar nee, het was Twickel.

Ik wist toen ook niet wat Hesp was.
Maar toch besteld.
Broodje droge ham.
Was wel lekker hoor.
Veggie is best knap.

Ik geloof wel dat het de sinaasappels waren van Twickel zelf wat ze vertelde.
Ook de lunch met Hesp kan ik mij herinneren.

Ik had toen 2 potten marmeladejam gekocht in het winkeltje van Twickel. Was echt lekker.

The word "drommedaris" was a common spelling variant of "dromedaris" (the one-humped camel) at the time. You also see this in old songs and documents: the double "m" emphasized the sound. Later, the official spelling in Dutch became "dromedaris," but the building's historical name was never changed.

The Drommedaris in Enkhuizen is the old city gate (1649), and the name is deliberately spelled with "mm." This is because spelling hadn't yet been standardized in the 17th century, and words were often written phonetically or according to regional patterns.

In the city where the Drommedaris is situated, they call it the Drommedaris too.

Twickel, een van de mooiste kasteeltuinen van Nederland. En jij woont er heerlijk dichtbij. Prachtige aquarel. ❀️
