It’s smashing Stephen! They always make it look easy, I think that about Wesson’s work, but it’s anything but.

This direct approach to watercolour isn’t easy, much easier to work in layers for me - great job here…

Many thanks everyone, I did paint the paler areas (sky, background hill, water and grass) first and then added the darker areas.

This is great Stephen! It’s never easy when trying to do it from a book but you’ve done very well.

Copied this from an old Ray Campbell Smith book. Looked easy but it wasn’t!

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.
