 Evening Light at the river, 18×24cm, oil on MDF, Astrid Volquardsen 2017

Even though the conditions were not ideal, you need to hop on board and go for it. This was painted in less than 20 minutes and then the sun was gone. the award: New colors and a nice loose brush stroke.

And gone was the sun.

April clouds across the Elbe, Oil on MDF, 18×24cm, Astrid Volquardsen, 2017

I am not the only one who is fascinated by the fast moving clouds. On the weekend people who live in the back land of the river came to watch this spectacle.

Luckily we had been missed by the most heavy showers. Just a slight drizzle.

Plein Air: Old Ravenstreet

How many times have I passed this corner and never saw this beautiful street sign? It was designed in memory of a restaurant that had been there since 1798  by Franz Andreas Meyer (1837–1901). This spot has always been a favorite place of excursions, even with its own pier, but much smaller in those days.

Today I used this much firmer construction for a plein air study on April clouds. I was reminded that condensed water can move soooooooo fast across the sky.

»Der größte Feind der Kreativität ist
die Angst vor dem inneren Kritiker
und der Bewertung Außenstehender.«
 
Ausgehend von meiner Arbeit als Künstlerin
gebe ich Einblicke,
welche Voraussetzungen förderlich sind,
welche Mythen Sie getrost beiseitelassen können,
wie Sie Ihre innere Einstellung verändern,
damit Sie zu Ihrer Kreativität einen besseren Zugang finden.

 

Plein Air: Holnis at Flensborg Fjord

Blick zum Steilufer, 15×30cm Öl auf MDF, 2017, Astrid Volquardsen

I just love this spot at the Flensborg Fjord on the very far north of Germany. Whenever I can, I go and paint there.

For the first time a warm wind was blowing, the sail boats start to appear on the water and from the danish church across the fjord the church bells were calling. Blessed time.
