Jacaranda Time



It's that time of year 💜 again (my last post before the looong silence was done in jacaranda season) and the 'Monties' Thursday sketching group returned to Villa Arcadia today, where the gardens and avenues are shrouded in purple. 

I brought my Hahnemühle sketchbook, which I'm trying to stick to watercolour only for - but did bring out a lilac wax crayon to attempt to reproduce the soft haziness, and the almost neon glow of the blossoms in the shadows. 

Beautiful spring sunshine, beautiful buildings, rocks, jacarandas, company... beautiful morning altogether 💜🌸💜
