Beautiful work! I am sharing a song I wrote called “Watercolor” with artists, especially those who work with Watercolor. You can listen and download here: http://wp.me/p3mOze-m. Thanks so much!

Hi, Doron!
I’m not sure why this happened either, I just realized while browsing my connections that although I was following your blog I wasn’t receiving any notifications and it was because I hadn’t subscribed. That’s done now!
You are very welcome [happy to], and well done for for fine work too!

No worry, we are back and I can enjoy your work again. Probably just a technical glitch which I see often, not unusaul. Good to see your nice work again.

I have to ask you this, and it might be stupid, but lets take a shot 🙂
When you start drawing something, do you have something in mind- a theme maybe- or you just start and let the chips fall as they may ?
Apologies for the dumb question, but that side of my brain is underdeveloped. So… 😦
LikeLike
No need for apologies, it’s a perfectly “normal” question!
I always have an image of what I want to draw in my head. Beginning from a theme and then my composition. However, I don’t do drafts, as such. Drafts, I suppose are all those paintings thrown in the garbage! I hope that kind of answers your question.
What I couldn’t answer you would be the process through which an inspiration comes. That -to this day- remains a mystery to me!
