Ah thankyou Paul, yes Liz and I enjoyed painting around Anglesey and Snowdonia when we lived there for over 20 years. I enjoyed your gallery as well.

20" x 16" watercolour on Bockingford NOT This painting is `Contre-jour` (painting toward the light) I used French Ultra(blue) and Burnt Sienna(orange) this mix gives one of the best blacks/darks without using tube blacks. The bark on the near tree was achieved when dry by running the heal of a damp brush down the length of the tree trunk. Sun- mask and sponge and soften off edges.
