lavender field

Did you have a happy Christmas and a wonderful New Year?
Here in Japan, we had really warm and wonderful weather on New Year's Day!

Now that we've already had family re-union and some snugly, cozy holidays at home doing nothing special -actually we usually stay at home on holidays and do not go anywhere  because there are so many people out there and of course traffic jams, which we really do not like, I am ready to go back my normal pace of everyday life.

Today I am going to show you my latest watercolor work; actually I finished this yesterday!
It is called ' The fragrant wind- Snowshill Lavender Farm, UK'.
SM size(227x158mm), The Langton watercolor paper.

When we were in the UK, one of my dreams was to visit the farm full of lavender flower in full bloom and I was very happy that it came true!
It was an incredible experience to me to visit the place.
The field was covered with full of subtle purplish gradation of lavender flowers, and  I was totally struck by the natural beauty and the fragrance of numerous lavender in full bloom. So dreamy, and fantastic.
It was one of our good memory and it will remain fresh forever and ever!

Rose in the window

This is the Rose which I painted about five years ago or so.
Rose in the window on the very cold winter days looks cozy and dreamy.
The sweet fragrant flower also makes us feel relaxed and healed.

Little flames-Cyclamen

Hello! Thank you for visiting my watercolor blog!
I am showing you today a cyclamen flower. Don't you think those buds look like  little flames which are about to burn up?
I hope those little flames comfortably warm your heart up in  freezy days.

Have a nice day!

watercolor work-English oak acorns

I decided to blog as possible as I can; it is a very good practice of my English writing, or as I am not a native speaker of English, I do not have many opportunities to write any English here in Japan. Actually you need not use any English in this country (especially in the country sites),  it's so easy to lose it!

I really like trees in every season and draw them a lot in various colors,  golden and light yellow green in spring, then all kinds of green and  blue shades in gradation in summer, changing gradually into yellow, gold, brown, orange, bronze, purple and red, of course in autumn.
 I even adore the shabby and grim gray shades of winter as  dark colors sometimes let us know the beauty of dim lights.

Today let me share the acorns of English oak tree I met in the UK, and its fairy. This is very small picture, postcard size.

Oh, our dog Koma is now six month old and  really changing: her hair is getting long and she is soooo cute!

I love her so much :)
