Edelweiss


ORIGINAL WATERCOLOR
ACEO size 2.5 x 3.5 inches
Painted on ARCHES 140 lbs watercolor paper


ABOUT THIS PAINTING:

I spend most of my week-end in the Alps mountain which are
not far from the place where I live.
The season now don’t allows long plen-air sessions,
but Sunday it was warm outside with a beautiful sun
and I could just quickly paint this lovely frozen edelweiss
remained (I wonder how) flowered.

So that's how Edelweiss looks like!!! OMG I love that song and The Sound of Music is one of my most favorite movies!!! This is good Lore, to paint things not available anywhere else, especially in US! :)

Thanks a lot Erika, the mountains here are rich of wild flowers that probably are different from yours. Nervertheless it's the same with other things you have and we don't... like racoons! :-)

Lore if you keep painting every day, in a couple years time you'll be a force to be reckoned with.

Nice touch! You've got watercolor mojo.
