Today's practice (from life).

This boat was supposed to transport wine to New York by sail, but without a rudder, the wine would have never gotten there.

Watercolor on paper. A ship covered in tarps waiting without a rudder in a port at low tide. The scene is painted right before it starts raining, on an overcast day emphasizing the local colors of objects, textures, and atmospheric perspective.

Aquarellskizze auf hellblauer Pappe, Collage: Person in roter Kapuzenjacke läuft nachts durch eine Straße,  sie kommt uns entgegen und hält ein Handy in der Hand.  Sie schaut erschrocken.  Rechts und links helle Gebäudefassaden mit Fensterfronten. Der Himmel darüber düster, mit dunklen senkrechten Streifen.

Downtown Manhattan viewed from Hoboken’s Pier A. 20 minute color study, casein on paper, 10”x8”. art.monospace.com #art #artSky #casein #landscapeArt #urbanSketching #newJersey

This painting captures a view of Lower Manhattan at dusk, seen across the Hudson River. The skyline is loosely rendered in casein, with a blend of soft grays and ochres. One World Trade Center rises prominently at the center, its cool bluish tones contrasting with the warmer yellow, orange, and red highlights of the surrounding buildings. The hazy, graduated sky shifts from soft blue to a golden beige near the horizon, suggesting the quiet fade of daylight.

In the foreground, a weathered wooden pier juts into the water, its broken vertical posts reflected in the calm surface. The water is handled with smooth, horizontal strokes, enhancing the overall stillness and atmosphere of the piece. The brushwork is economical and expressive, reducing architectural forms to their essence while still conveying the urban density and layered depth of the scene.
