Three of cats in the old town

Hello to all dear friends.

Yesterday I had fun representing an ancient old town with a trio of cats.

Yes, the Italian historic centers are full of cats and ours is no less.

I share my original photo, where the pronoun subject is once ancient medieval style.

I wanted to interpret it with bright colors and small cats protagonists.

As a first step I drew the subject with the three cats, including one on the branch of a tree.
The window I preferred to draw it open and with plants.

In the second step I colored the bottom and part of the bow.
Even climbers enter the scene on the right side of the drawing.

In the third step the three kittens, the window and the plants and especially the first base of shading with the violet and cobalt blue.

The fourth step much better outlines the shadows, both inside the arch and those projected on the ground.
Draw the circle flooring with the brush.
I also paint the sea against the background of the arch, which takes away the big picture.

In the last step, I consolidate the shadows, and I paint the typical brick of the Italian historic centers coloring it more intensely.
I paint more color contrasts of light and shadow, using cobalt blue, violet and red ochre.
Those the mantle of cats with darker tones.

I hope you like my watercolor.

A hug from me and the cats of the old town.

Tre gatti nel centro storico

Ciao a tutti cari amici.

Ieri mi sono divertito a rappresentare un antico centro storico con un tris di gatti.

Si, i centri storici italiani sono pieni di gatti e il nostro non è da meno.

Condivido la mia foto originale, dove il soggetto proncipale è una volta antica di stile medievale.

Ho vouto interpretarla con colori vivaci e dei gatti piccoli protagonisti.

Come primo passo ho disegnato il soggetto con i tre gatti, di cui uno sul ramo di un albero.
La finestra ho preferito disegnarla aperta e con delle piante.

Nel secondo passo ho colorato il fondo e parte dell'arco.
Anche dei rampicanti entrano in scena dalla parte destra del disegno.

Nel terzo passaggio i tre micetti, la finestra e le piante e soprattutto la prima base di ombreggiature con il violetto e il blu cobalto.

Il quarto passaggio delinea molto meglio le ombre, sia interne all'arco che quelle proiettate a terra.
Disegno con il pennello la pavimentazione a cerchi.
Dipingo anche il mare sullo sfondo dell'arco, che allontana la visione d'insieme.

Nell'ultimo passaggio, consolido le ombre, e dipingo il mattonato tipico dei centri storici italiani colorandolo più intensamente.
Dipingo più contrasti cromatici di luci e ombre, usando il blu cobalto, il violetto e l'ocra rossa.
Coloro il mantello dei gatti con i toni più scuri.

Spero che il mio acquarello vi piaccia.

Un abbraccio da me e dai gatti del centro storico.

Armando

The view of the blue sea through the alleyway is impressive. It looks so peaceful landscape with cats :)
