Everybody’s already said it so well, it seems *de trop* to comment. But I will! A marvelous image, and yes, it tells so many stories. Depth upon depth. I love your comment about doing watercolor ‘your way’ and will try to get up the courage to give it a try myself one of these times! Thanks as always for sharing your magnificent art. 🙂

Superbly painted Elena. I’ve been having a go with watercolour this week, your images are such an inspiration. A long long long long long way from posting anything but maybe one day. 🙂
Thank you! You know, I avoided watercolor for years, until I decided to do it MY way. Now, it’s second nature. Do you YOUR way, and you can’t go wrong:)
love the emotions! I feel kind of sorry for the kid… it is truly beautiful!
but somehow the title feels strange, although once I look at your work, I forget about it and just get lost in its tender awkwardness 🙂

The man looks like he shouldn’t be there. Maybe a creeper?
Could be:)
Oh, the heart sink..! Love how you’ve kept her colours muted and his so strong, just how it feels..!
Again, your insight is smack on. A feeling we all unfortunately, have experienced. Thanks so much!
I love this one–it’s just comforting to think upon the scene presented. Another beautiful piece.
Many thanks Allyson.

Beautifully captured moment with great detail. How you get the detail with those loose gestural lines I do not know. 😀
It’s a big watercolor brush, but it has a lovely point at the tip. Thanks Cindy.

It’s an expression from a while back-a break up phrase:) What remains constant is how crummy it feels. Thank you!
Beautiful!
Thank you!
Beautiful work Elena, the reticence of heartbreak in the heat of youth.
Yes, so true. Thank you Patti.
