Watercolour and Photoshop™
©1990 Charlene Brown
This was painted following a visit to our
daughter at her school in Switzerland. I’ve
since decided the original was kind of pale, so I’ve bumped up the colours in
Photoshop and, while I was at it, changed the proportions – compared to photos of the coffee shop on the Neuchatel lakefront,
for example, the painting had everything stretched vertically.
The school in Switzerland was mentioned in
my 1990 Christmas letter, but I didn’t think of including this painting until I
started my current project to consolidate all the annual letters beginning that
year.
