my girlfriend yesterday.


As you can see, I can't watercolor but it was great fun to do
the funny bit is, how more people how easier it is, you can
go up in the crowd much easier.

To see some REAL watercolors, go to Sarah Wimperis's blog

"The muddy red shoes."

a great inspiration for everybody who paints daily,
such joy and love she is able to put into her drawings,
paintings and not to forget her watercolors!!

A monumental house. Holland.

Today I biked to Oosterbeek to paint a house that I wanted
to paint for a long time, ... a vicars house that did duty in the
second world war as a R.A.P. during the operation "Market Garden".

A Regimental Aid Posts just behind Oosterbeek Church, in and around this house of Kate ter Horst. She opened up her home and filled it to capacity with as many of the wounded and dying as she could. Throughout the battle she did all that any one person could do to make her guests comfortable and to ease their suffering.
