Welcome to my Blog

I am pleased to welcome you to my blog and though I am a complete novice when it comes to blogging I am excited by the possibilities it presents and look forward to showing you my work, the work that some of my students produce and to answering any questions you may have about aspects of the work, techniques used or just discussing painting and drawing.

Yar Painting Stage VI


Stage VI

In this stage I have started to add the river using the same combination of colours as in the sky. A little more definition was added to the edge of the banks where they meet the waters edge and then a little edge of very pale blue,  was cut along the exact point where the bank meets the water, this, along with the reflections are the tricks to making water look wet (more of these at a later stage). The next bit was to start putting in the 'illusion of detail' behind the row of moored boats on the right indicating the hotch-potch of ropes, fenders, outboard motors etc. etc. associated with a marine scene such as this.
