A big tree which Blaukopf paints each autumn.

Another artist that I follow online is Shari Blaukopf, an artist living in Montreal, Canada.  I first encountered her work though Urban Sketchers, a world-wide group of artists who primarily paint outdoors, or in plein air.

One of the courses which Blaukopf teaches on Craftsy.

I admire Shari’s work of loosely painted watercolors with pen and ink, or sometimes with pencil overlay. Her usual topic is street scenes, but she also records human figures in various situations, subways, restaurants, etc.  And her dog Alice  She can find beauty in some of the most unusual places.
