What a nice way to create a painting, and the doggies benefit too! I like the composition and your colour choices. The pen lines work really well with the watercolour and give added texture. Very nice! Perhapsl I should get up of my bottom and take my dog out - rather than leaving it to my husband!

A lovely pen and watercolour painting Sarah. One of my favourite artists is Angie Lewin and this reminds me of her work. Well done!

Julie and Christine, thank you for your nice comments. Julie- I'm trying to tire out a very young dog and at the same time I have to slow down for my 15 year old terrior so I look a sight as I go by being stretched in the middle of my two dogs :). Christine- I have just looked up Angie Lewin. How lovely her work is so thank you for the compliment, and she is a Norfolk gal so I will look out for her exhibitions to go to. A good tip, thank you :)

Just caught this before it fell off the page. It has a sort of mystical feel to it. Love that poppy.

Very nice Sarah! I especially like the colours and background effects here. The poppy is lovely as well.

I love the birth of this work sarah; foraging and collection your subject. It's a huge success! Can't wait to see the result of your next dog walk.

It's all been said. It was the rich colours and composition that attracted me to the thumbnail. It has a good feel to it.

Sylvia, Louise, Fiona and Gudrun thank you for your kind comments. Each one very much appreciated :)

This is superb, Sarah! I love the very surreal feel of the painting and the richness of the colors.

Seok, it is always a pleasure receiving your comments :)

I couldnt agree more with the above comments it great

Thank you Brenda, I'm glad you like it :)

Painted on stretched Saunders hot press paper. Watercolour and pen. I took my dogs for a lovely country walk and brought back a variety of leaves and flower heads that were scattered about my feet. C&C gratefully received :)
