WatercoloredHands

…who is another architect addicted to watercolor and whose influence I can now clearly see in Rebecca Elfast’s work (Rebecca is an architect, too. I feel like I’m not that unique in having an architectural background and a burning passion for watercolor. I only hope they aren’t doomed to sitting in front of a computer screen wishing they’d rather be painting). Amstrand’s paintings make me think of the so-called Scandinavian design and of quiet places that are great for things like pondering and reminiscing.

Thanks for sharing my blog with your friend! Does he have a blog or a website with his artwork as well? It could be interesting to compile a list of architects who paint in watercolor...
