Fields at Twenty Foot Road by Mick Saunders

Comments

Hi Mick, this is great, I love the way it looks as if a storm cloud is passing overhead and a bit of sun has momentarily burst through. The warm buff brings it all together very well. You're inspiring me to get the pastels and charcoal out, though I find it even harder to be loose with them than with watercolours.

Yes, it has that moody intense look - caught just before that rain cloud burst. You can almost feel the wind whipping up.
