Nitra Slovakia Springtime by Marcy Brennan

Nitra Slovakia Springtime - 5" x 7" watercolor on paper

This is my second painting for the Virtual Paintout blog for December.  I love old buildings and when I was "walking" around Nitra in my virtual trip via Google Street View, this old building stopped me in my "virtual tracks".  ;-)  I love the angle of the building and the beautiful complimentary colors of blue and orange.  The church in the background was simply perfect.  I had fun with the sky colors - it says happy morning to me!

Blue Beauty by Marcy Brennan

Blue Beauty - 5" x 7" watercolor on paper - $25

My nephew Josh has turned both of his parents into avid birders.  Even his mom knew the name of this when I texted her for help.  (Well she could have cheated and asked Jose ;-)).  Josh has thousands of amazing bird photos and he shared a ton of them with me for painting references.  This is from one of his photos.  The background of the photo had lots of busy tree stuff in it, so I simplified it with the orangey-yellow glow that sets off his beautiful blue nicely.  It's called a Budgeriger.  For such a pretty bird, I just know that I could have come up with a prettier name for this little guy--like Blue Beauty! ;-)

Springtime in Slovakia by Marcy Brennan

Springtime in Slovakia - 5" x 7" watercolor on paper - $25

I've never been to Slovakia, but from "walking around" in Google Street View, it looks like a beautiful country.  I did this painting for this month's challenge at the virtual paintout blog site.  It looks like the Google crew was there during spring as all the areas of the country I "walked" had beautiful green buds beginning to come out on the trees.

Riverside-Albert, News Brunswick, Canada by Marcy Brennan

Riverside-Albert, News Brunswick, Canada - 5" x 7" watercolor on paper

#2 of 3 in my New Brunswick, Canada series.  This series came about when I discovered the Virtual Paintout website that challenges artists to use Google Street View to find painting references.  Each month, a new location somewhere in the world is selected.  I love the intersection of art and technology!  And I get to paint places I'll never be able to visit in person.  This is so exciting!!!  I can't wait to see next month's location ;-)
