My long-distance friend Marina Kanavaki makes the most beautiful paintings. I find it amazing how she always knows exactly how to capture colors, moves, feelings and most of all “a soul” in her paintings. You should definitely have a look at her paintings. They are for sale on various products. With this painting, again, she took my breath away !

The possibilities are endless. So many things / techniques one can use. I had done that with paper and watercolor on top. The printer’s inks and the watercolors created interesting effects. It’s all about having fun really… 🙂
