369 Two rickshaws in the streets of Dhaka, Bangladesh
I did manage to squeeze in a few minutes for a quick watercolor sketch, because I really wanted to do this one.
It’s a scene from google street view that I painted for a site that invites you to discover a country by painting streetview pictures! – It’s called “The Virtual Paintout” and it asks you to paint on different locations every month. A really cool concept i think – I’m going to send the drawing to the site straight away to have it included!
These kind of things are really really hard to get right! I’m a big fan of Maxine Dodd’s bisycle watercolors but I’ve got a long way to go, to do them like her!
Anyway – that’s all for now.. I’m off to the virtual paintout – then to bed.

I really like this! You’ve captured the movement well with minimal brush strokes. Hope you do more of these street scenes.

Your watercolour is great! It really captures the sense of movement. That sounds like a really fun project to participate in. As a family historian, I use Google Street View a lot in order to wander around the places my ancestors lived. If I was a landscape painter, I would be quite tempted to join in.
