Shade From The Sun

That's lovely Nigel. A perfect English day in the countryside, just where I love to be on such a day as that. I like the detail in the tree up top, framing the picture. What brushes did you use for that? Which greens did you use for the rest of it?

I like the inclusion of distant pylons. Usually I would avoid these as a modern industrial blight on our wonderful landscape, but here they give a sense of scale and distance. Good work

Great watercolour, Nigel, wonderful depth and sense of space.

Well done

Thank you for the comments Stella, Philip, Cesare and Maureen. This A2 sized watercolour was a commission for a friend, showing the village where she lives in the distance. It had to be accurate, hence the pylons and all the details. I use 3/0, 4/0 and 10/0 brushes for detail and I use a lot of sap green.
