Live sketches on the Road
Hi, I’m Petra Tool, a professional Dutch painter who works with watercolor, often while traveling. I mostly paint people - and sometimes the places they belong to. Over the years, I’ve portrayed people in places like Scotland, Iceland, Thailand and Greece - working from real encounters.
In March I’ll be in Ibiza. I create small, personal, expressive watercolor portraits of the locals and fellow travelers I encounter. Could that be you?
I work fast, from real life or a short photo session. I paint with depth and intuition. The bright colors, a few lines and lots of white space are just enough to capture your beautiful essence. I don’t paint everything I see, only what lingers. Less is more.
