Lovely Barry and the title says it all!

Thank you Tessa I appreciate your comments.

Yes you have caught this peaceful scene very well, as we often say, the simplest scenes are often the best in watercolour.

Its lovely Barry, I just love the way you paint.

A beautifully relaxed watercolour, Barry. Such gentle and pleasing colours, and subtle effects. I can actually feel the peace there. No wonder you're pleased with it, rightfully so!

Very lovely painting Barry.

Thanks to all for your comments I do love returning to these peaceful, relaxed scenes they seem flow so well. I think they reflect my love of the countryside I have spent many an hour walking along the riverbank of my local rivers.

A lovely watercolour Barry ,

Barry, this is beautiful. The sort of scene I love to paint.

Lovely painting Barry.

Would look nice on anybody's wall.

Many thanks to David, Pete, Peter and Brian your comments always encourage me.

Beautiful soft colours. Well done.

Fancied a change today and so I threw myself into a river scene. It didn't quite turn out as I envisaged as my arm and brush took over and the minimalist effect I intended disappeared. However, I feel it is still a very nice painting and a an hour well spent. Painted on Bockingford 200llb rough half imperial.
