A wonderful watercolour, Jill. Looks mysterious and tranquil.

Love the darks and feeling of recession in this, Jill

It is … but I like it a lot!

It does, but very effective.

Love those wonderful effects. This is so unusual and has a very atmospheric feel to it. I also like your choice of colours Jill.

Thank you so much for your comments. I almost imagined Frodo and his chums appearing out of the gloom! 😂

Love the effect Jill it works really well. Did you use tissue paper to achieve the cabbage leaf pattern?

Hi Barry. Thanks for your kind comments. It was done using a base of gesso and then using a piece of stiff paper pressed on and taken off quickly while it was still wet. Then painted on after it had all dried. It’s not until you put colour on that you see the shapes and textures really. A Woodland just seemed to appear!

Watercolour - quite an interesting effect! A bit like cabbage leaves I though!
