What a delightful gallery (as in 'full of delight')

The simplicity of colours and brushwork make it look very fresh.

Another painter in gouache - good! Wonderful to see it making a come-back, it produces completely unique results.

I was very lucky to be shown how to use it properly (strictly instructed to maintain a creamy consistency, so there is no chance of bleeding) and I find it extremely useful in the field, as it's very economical on space - a couple of acrylix brushes, a few small tubes, and an old plastic bottle can be cut up to make an impromptu water container and palette!

Great gallery and such interesting work.

Actually this is pure quality gouache - wonderful to handle, and again working on a very small scale indeed in 'notebook' fashion, and en plein air, of course - this subject almost seemed to have painted itself, as it presented in wonderful clear blocks of simple colours!
