'Cley Mill'
Following on from the sketch I posted a few days ago of the LP demo. A good exercise in mixing and using the dreaded 'greens', which I don't do often enough. I was undecided how to preserve the white sails and mill cap, not keen on masking fluid, ( besides, I haven't got any) so I shaved a bit of wax off a candle and did it with that. I have ended up with a mucky grey. Wax isn't really acurate enough either, so a lesson learned there. Old Holland watercolours; U. marine, W. blue (green shade) R. sienna, B. sienna, L. red, V. red and a little of V brown & P. grey for the darks. I also used a little L. yellow in the sky and far righthand foreground. Arches rough. Thanks for looking.
