Wind through the Lavender Fields is a painting that falls under impressionism and involves a hand-painted watercolour.
In the painting process, I was completely surprised by the effect of watercolour on wet paper. Also called the wet-on-wet technique.
Watercolour can sometimes be a very unpredictable and dynamic medium, but which in the end can give very interesting and surprising results.
As a painter, by experimenting with the water and paint ratios, you learn more and more about how the paint reacts. And these are one of the things that makes painting in watercolour so much fun.
In this case, I wanted to paint a Lavender hillside landscape with a Tuscan look. The composition features a Tuscan country house on the purple hill. The cottage is sharply illustrated, while the Lavender field shoots in all directions as if a strong wind suddenly blows through the landscape, sending the Lavender blowing through the air.
A beautifully colourful and high-contrast painting for lovers of purple and pink colours and the Tuscan atmosphere. This work radiates tranquillity, while at the same time it is also very dynamic, because you can see a clear form of movement in the work.
This work was then further elaborated with line drawings in black ink, where the composition exudes a peaceful atmosphere of a lavender field in bloom.
This work is called 'Peace in the Lavender Fields'.
