Two new Sunset Skylines, and the Great Wall too!

Hi Everybody

In the first lockdown I painted quite a few skyline watercolours and recently I had a discussion which has resulted in the creation of two more watercolours with sunsets and the skyline.

I really do enjoy these type of watercolours which are 45 by 19 cms in size to try to get the panorama of the cities.

So here they are and as we start to see the easing of our UK lockdown we may even be able to think more about some travel once again.

Firstly Singapore which is continually changing and is such a terrific place to visit.

I recall that we ate on the top of the Marina Bay Sands building, the one that looks like a ship on three 57 storey towers. Quite an experience.

Just for fun last week I had a look through some photos of the Great Wall of China which we visited in 2007, how time flies.
We had such a wonderful time there with some great US friends and also managed to go to see the Terracotta Warriors at Xian and visit Shanghai too.

Surprisingly I hadn’t sketched the Great Wall when we were there so I decided to paint two pen and was watercolours last week.

So here  they are, they are both about 27 by 24 cms
