Watercolor Wednesday: A walk in the rain

Two women under a red umbrella with a man in blue to the side, walking in scenic Heidelberg, Germany.

My dad paints in many different styles, and I particularly like his more abstract interpretations, such as this lovely watercolor from a trip he and my mom enjoyed in the picturesque town of Heidelberg, Germany. What strikes me are the stark colors against the more muted background.

Our weather today is the opposite of the soaking drizzle we see here, but of course in the UK we have a lot of that kind of rain.

If you were to enter this scene, who would you be – one of the women under the umbrella or the man in blue, or someone off the side just entering? What would you be doing, and why?
