Little Boat

Less detail sometimes makes for a more exciting painting. Watercolour is a bit of a journey I think.

Thanks Louise and yes you are right - and what a journey - sometimes I get so frustrated with being too detailed and slavishly adding all the detail. I think Hermen Peckell said something interesting - let the paint paint itself.

Wonderful collection of boat paintings Joseph each one with it's own unique style. Love the washes and light in this one....it glows!

Little study of a boat (which I like better than my big studies). The purity of simple flat washes and wet on wet is starting to appeal to me more so that detailed work.
