Dans le village de Sainte Barbe (commune de Plouharnel - Morbihan) - In the small village of Sainte Barbe (Plouharnel - South Brittany)


Un petit village adorable avec ses maisons en pierre, ces fleurs, le tout sous le soleil !
Ca ne me donne vraiment pas envie de retrouver la banlieue parisienne dès demain !
Première double page sur mon nouveau carnet Stillman & Birn série Zeta. Un papier qui est plus lisse, un peu comme du satiné et qu'il faut apprivoiser, mais qui accepte l'aquarelle avec bonheur !
...Hmmm.. entre Beta et Zeta, les choix vont être difficiles !

A lovely little village with wonderful old stone houses, flowers, and under the sun.
It does make me sad to leave Brittany to go back to dull Paris suburb tomorrow
First double page in my new Stillman & Birn Zeta series sketchbook. Smooth paper that looks a bit like hot pressed, which I must get used to, but it is so good with watercolour too !
...Hmmm.... Choosing between Beta and Zeta is bound to be difficult !

  1. Another great sketch, Martine. And I think there are a lot of worse things than having to go back to Paris. You have such a great depth of material to choose from for your drawings and paintings.

  2. Wonderful sketch. Thanks for the info on the sketchbook. Was wondering how the Zeta took to watercolors.

  3. Charming and evocative. I am working to fill the sketch books I have already before purchasing something new, but all the notes from folks about Stillman & Birn have me envious..... Must go paint.
