In Ammon's: 60 Via de Cotocello, Marciana

60 via de Cotocello, Marciana
5 x 8 coated Moleskine paper
watercolor, micron pens, white goache
This is the last of these Virtual Paintout Pix I will be doing in Ammon's Mole. This was made, as were all my virtual paintout pix, from a google streetview.

Here is the streetview:

Streetview, 60 via de Cotoncello, Marciana
As you can see, I changed the design of the towels and changed the brick to stone.  Also, I had to crop a vertical (portrait) out of a horizontal (landscape).  They YELLOW is primarily from the stupid Yellow paper!!! (I prefer white paper!)  (That was why I put white gouache in a few places!

If anyone wants to participate in the Virtual Paintout, it's Elba for the rest of February.

Cool! That's such a great idea - to do a painting from Google Streetview. I'm going to give it a try. :)

You can do it on your own, or you can do it with Virtual Paintout, which is currently in Elba.

Thanks. :-D

I like doing the Virtual Paintout things, other than the difficulty of finding something I would enjoy painting.
