Chartwell Goldfish watercolour

I can think of few things more boring than goldfish Mark, yet you've made a great picture of them. Love the way you've handled the water...

Hilarious comment Jim😂. Obviously Winston Churchill was a bit of a fan. The reflected bamboo patterns were really something else.

Love the strong watery effects, Mark, and, in answer to Jim's comment it's not the goldfish's fault if they're boring, just the way they're kept much of the time!! Lol!!

On a recent trip to Chartwell I saw these goldfish swimming in a pond with an intricate reflection of bamboo against a lilac sky.
