Took a shot at painting this cute post office I saw in Japan. Painting buildings is something I still find tricky so I may try to make a little series of paintings from my trip photos for practise.
A sketchbook lay open over a paper pallet. The sketchbook is open to a page with an acrylic gouache painting depicting a small blue wooden post office building, surrounded by blander taller buildings. This is a quick painting based on Kyoto Gion post office. A sketchbook lay open over a paper pallet.

Selene ✨🌕✨🌕✨
A gouache painting of a woman in blue facing left. She wears a slightly melancholy expression and her hair is piled up on her head and braided in a style reminiscent of Ancient Greece. Behind the woman sits a large pink moon and she is surrounded by clouds the colours of dawn. Tiny stars litter the page. The painting is surrounded by the gouache paints, brushes and pallets used on the piece.
