Love the atmosphere you have captured in this Paul.

Thank you Carrie, I’m particularly pleased with the outcome as it was very relaxing to do, it’s from imagination and just seems to have developed.

A3 paper , watercolour of a Tames barge on the river Orwell early morning . I used the old method of stretching the paper as I haven’t done so for ages. Most of the painting was done on quite wet paper, it wax interesting to see how the paper behaved due to the stretching . I pleased with the outcome as it was mainly the stretching that I was interested in , so I was relaxed about the actual painting process.
