Wonderful light, you make it look simple but I'm sure it's not.

Lovely scene Stephen, you have good contrast between the land and water but no tell tale Fletcher Watson scratching out with a pen knife.

Many thanks, David and Barry. No pen knife work Barry, I did try a little 'Ron Ranson fingernail' in the dark trees though! Interesting how they have their own little tricks! The important thing is of course, is they could certainly paint!

Very true Stephen there is always something to learn and I often look at their work when searching for inspiration.

A quick rework of a JFW classic. This sort of work looks fairly simple but controlling those strong, fluid washes is anything but!

About the Artist

Stephen Slater

I am a self taught amateur painter, I mostly paint landscapes in watercolour but I 'dabble' in other mediums from time to time. I really enjoy my art, especially painting outdoors when the weather allows.
