Parroquia
About This Work
Discover the heart of a Spanish town with 'Parroquia,' an original 26x36cm watercolour on paper by Maryna Riepnova. This vibrant painting beautifully captures a sunlit parish church ('parroquia') with its distinct bell tower, surrounded by colourful neighbouring buildings and a lively street scene. Maryna's skillful use of watercolour brings out the bright light and architectural details, offering a charming glimpse into local life. 'Parroquia' is perfect for those who appreciate traditional scenes rendered with a fresh, artistic touch.
Specifications
Water, Light & the White of the Paper
The First Wash
I begin by stretching the paper and letting it breathe. That first layer of water is everything. It decides where the pigment will flow, where it will bloom, where it will surprise me.
Color Conversations
I mix my watercolors slowly, often returning to the same shade three or four times until it feels right. Nothing is forced. The paint knows when it's ready to meet the paper.
Chasing the Light
The final layers are the quietest. I work dry, small strokes, pulling shadows forward and letting the white of the paper do what no pigment ever could. Hold the light.
"Water does not lie. Whatever I am feeling that day ends up on the paper whether I planned it or not."
