Lindisfarne Priory by Sheila Massey

I love this, so full of character, a real feeling for the place. This sketch is the essence of pen and wash, loose, non-fussy, not overworked, almost a perfect example of the medium. If anything, perhaps the tree encroaches a fraction, being a tiny bit too strong. Otherwise, a great example. Well done!! Erik.

A lovely picture. I really like the colours, the pink is great.

Thank you for your useful comments, Erik. This was a very early experiment with pen and wash. so I am delighted that you like the result.

The stonework of the Priory has a pink tinge in the sunlight. The medium gave me the freedom to develop this without worrying too much about it looking too realistic. I'm glad you like it, Margaret.
