Villa in Grasse

Gorgeous aquarelle watercolour by Cathie van der Stel
  
Cathie painted this house in the Peyloubet area in Grasse, for her friend Kristine who is immigrating to Australia and wanted a memory of the house where she & her family spent many happy years. She commissioned Cathie and they chose the pool area, because represented to her where they enjoyed their outdoor lifestyle. Kristine is not taking the statue with her to Australia, so that's also a memory, along with the pots, the garden she tended and the overall sunny atmosphere...

A property in Cap Ferrat part one

Behold this terrific property on one of the most beautiful locations in the world, Cap Ferrat. My friend and 'Marina Artist Team'- colleague Cathie van der Stel painted it. Cathie is the queen of the one-hair brush! The incredibly rich detail in her beautiful, subtle work shows her patience. This painting measures 70 x 50 cm and to really enjoy it, please enlarge by clicking on it!

View on Saint Tropez


See here (click for "the big picture") the result of meticulous work with "one-hair brushes" of aquarellista Cathy van der Stel and myself. A commission from my real-estate husband, who sold this capital villa in "Saint Trop"... and wants to give the owner a beautiful memory. And the owner - the thing he liked best about the house was the view...so that's why we painted that for him. He will receive it upon signature at the notary, very soon!
