Wintersun - watercolour 40cm x 26cm by Gerhard Ritter

Comments

This is a brilliant portrait - hard to believe it is done in watercolour. I really like the colour pallette you have used and the lighting on the face is just perfect,

A lovely portrait, looks like an oil painting. Very intererting light on the back of the head.

Magnificent! How do you get a watercolour to look like an oil painting. Terrific lighting.

I must say that when I get such lovely comments it's genuine encouragement for me to strive to do even better. I'm trying, in my own little way, to change the preconceptions we all seem to share about what a watercolour should look like.

Wintersun- watercolour 40cm x 26cm on Arches 300 rough A short pause during a hard day's work - back turned toward the setting sun. A lull before the journey home - a time to reflect.
