The autumn feeling in the botanical garden! 🍂
I painted it in the botanical garden of The Hermitage of Braid. Such a lovely place full of fragrant smells!

The fireweed lady. 🌿

In Lithuanian folklore, Laumės are women/witches/deities/fairies who live in boggy places having various mystical powers.

P.S.
I always enjoy painting with Kuretake Gansai Tanbi watercolours. 🌟 The pigmentation and colour selection is amazing! 🧡 This is the best watercolour set I have ever had and highly recommend it to everyone regardless of their skills in painting.

FREE CLASS! 💙

Hey! I have decided to upload this painting taster class to give you a feeling. The taster class is available for everyone! 😊

The outline of Class #1 for beginners:
● The nature of colour. What is the colour, and what makes us see the colours?
● What is the intuition behind colour mixing?
● Colour Wheel making.

I invite everyone, who is intrigued, to try! 🌻

The view of isles of Eigg and Rum floating above the clouds. ⛰

This view was discovered by my hiking companions and me when walking in the rough terrain of the Ardnamurchan peninsula in the summer days.

Above the clouds, there is always the Sun shining. ☀️ That is important to remember, especially when you live in Scotland!🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🌧

Do you also like to observe the transition of nature? 🍂 Autumn is time for vivid leaf colours, foggy days, rain washing the streets, foraging goods popping out everywhere around us, deep thoughts and learning!

I adore this season and want to bathe in it. 🍁
