Paint Party Friday - Tulips


Welcome to Paint Party Friday! These tulips were done on an index card (3" x 5") using brush markers and watercolour pencils, outlined with a fine point black pen.  Do you think the weather's clearing up, or is it becoming overcast?  There is a bit of sun shining on the tulips and casting shadows!

We are having our first long weekend of the summer, the Victoria Day weekend.

Beautiful! I wish I could be at Skagit Valley enjoying their tulips although it's probably past their season by now.

I do love tulips

So pretty, let's hope spring is sooner as I am so sick of being cold! I think it should be a universal truth, when artists start painting tulips again then it should be spring!

Those tulips are beautiful. The weather can't make up its mind. One day it's really sunny, and the next it rains a lot. Sometimes it can go from being really sunny to raining a lot during the same day.

So beautiful, and perfect for spring! The weather around here has been really up and down. One day is sunny and warm and the next it's chilly and rainy. My sinus' are not amused. lol!

Nice drawing. I like tulips, but they don't grow here in Hawaii.

Very pretty Christine, that would look lovely on your wall. I am not sure where you are but here in Northern Virginia it has turned into a cloudy day and the temperature is lower. It was very hot during the week, got into 90s this week. My husband just made me laugh. He did some laundry and said well, guess I can put my winter sweatpants up now ;)
