Tribute to Thomas Schaller

I recently came across the works of Thomas Schaller, a watercolor artist based in Los Angeles. These are couple of quick sketches in tribute to his work. He is extremely talented at his representation of light as it falls across the subjects of the paintings. Original works can be seen at his website at http://thomasschaller.com

Dublin, Ireland

Grafton Street, Dublin

A wet day, but that hasn't stopped the shoppers and cafe dwellers. Just pop open an umbrella and you're ready to go. Grafton Street is a dynamic, well-scaled, and enjoyable walk-street to stroll along.

Limerick, Co. Limerick, Ireland

County Kerry, Ireland

The rolling hills of patchwork farmer's fields in County Kerry make for one of the most aesthetically pleasant views in the world. With brooding dark skies and a ray of sunshine here or there, the vistas from a hill-top road are breath-taking; a perfect combination of natural and man-made landscape.
