Recent watercolours

 

Dawn at Leigh on Sea in Essex Watercolour 18 inches by 8

Hi Everybody

It is  raining again!

During this dreary winter in Kent there have been quite a lot of opportunities to paint in the warmth of my studio!

Here are some recent works including one larger than usual watercolour.

Of course we did manage a trip to Madeira which was in a recent post which we really did enjoy as well.

Wast Water and Scafell in the Lake District Watercolour 14 inches by 10.

This scene is one of my favourites and has also been popular on Artfinder.

We love Provence and this bridge reminds me of so many great times there.

And more locally –

 

Painted from a Victorian print this scene is of West Malling in Kent . Watercolour sketch 9 inches square, part of a Family History project.

 

 

A sketch of Mousehole in Cornwall from one of my photos of some years ago 12 inches by 10

 

Sunset in the Lake District. Watercolour15 inches by 10.

 

And lastly a recent watercolour,the largest that I have ever attempted.

This is of Salisbury Cathedral  when the Meadows by the River Avon are flooded, as they do twice a year.

With thanks to Rob of Robert Franklin Photography for his permission to use his excellent image.

The watercolour is 40 inches by 12 , by some way the largest I have painted. The watercolour is painted on 600 gsm Arches paper for stability. Very exciting to produce!

Salisbury Meadows and Cathedral.

I hope eventally to produce some high quality smaller prints from this original watercolour.

So pretty busy of late and now looking forward to spring, some sunshine, and some outdoor painting.

Happy Travelling

Brian
