In Roscoff, I decided to send postcards that I would have made myself: on an A4 sheet, I included four of them, so cards are in A6 format. I fixed to finish each card in about 15mn.

I use a small A4 sketch book that I've done myself, as described in my previous blog post Travel by bike. As for sketches in less than 10mn, I fix here to finish each watercolor in about one hour. Before to come back in Grenoble, I stop for a week-end in Paris and go at the Luxembourg garden:

Back in Grenoble after a travel during the holidays, I continued watercolor sketches from the quais and river bridge.

Then, I visited my family in the Alps, first in Lovagny where there live in a chalet and then in Novalaise where they restored an old farm.

I drew fitst a quit sketch using a fineliner-pen and then introduced the watercolors. I used a small A4 sketch book that I've done myself with some watercolor paper, a cardboard sheet for the back, a transparent slide for the top and a a string for the binding. As for sketches in less than 10mn, I fixed here to finish each watercolor in about one hour.

Going back, I stopped few days in Die:
