Thank you Carole, a bit of a change in style for me but trying some new things lately.

Such lovely texture and wash effects in this Liezel. Beautiful.

The textural effect you’ve achieved here is lovely Liezel and fits well with the rest of the painting.

Thanks so much for the encouraging comments Val and Tessa, I might explore this method with some more subjects.

I really like this - so much is conveyed with so few marks

For this painting I started with a textured undercoat of watercolour ground. To achieve this I applied and then "lifted off" the ground with paper to mark and distress the surface. When this was dry I painted the scene with watercolours and ink and used granulation medium to add interest to the washes. This piece is significant to me as it marks a shift in my painting approach to be looser and to make use of the grain and textures to depict the lush landscape of trees, wild garlic and worn fencing.
