Atelier Interactive Acrylics on canvas board 14x10". I have been meaning to paint this scene for a long time and finally got round to it via my art class. The drawing of the boathouse proved quite tricky as the perspective is very slight and the position of the roof is odd relative to the window due to the overhang. I could have changed it but I wanted to try to get it representative. This is first time I have really tried to paint water without any blue and I think it worked OK. Comments welcome as always.
