Another fabulous painting of your neck of the woods Shirley, really enjoy sharing your outdoor experiences. As Alan has said, a powerful statement. Have you used gouache in this?

So evocative Shirley

Thank you kind friends. Yes, it’s gouache, and I must say that however brief the chance is to paint outdoors, it is worth every minute!

Just sitting at the edge of the woods at Devil’s Dyke just now, painting this view. Rain suddenly began, so got back to car. Kettle on next.
