I love the composition and the light is wonderful.

Cheers Dawn, All the best, Steve.

What a lovely personal piece! Brilliantly observed and executed.

Thanks Kim, All the best, Steve.

Gorgeous work Steve, you have captured their poses brilliantly, just the right amount of detail to their faces to show they are relaxing and enjoying the view, super view of the sea beyond and the rocks they are sitting on

Cheers Ros, I remember the day well and this weather, I know where I'd rather be.All the best, Steve

Fantastic light and atmosphere. Nice to see your watercolours.

What a lovely picture, and wonderful memory for you

Cheers Gudrun and Karyl, All the best, Steve.

Lovely watercolour Steve, loose washes but you have caught the character of the two figures well.

Thanks Steve, All the best Steve

Brilliant! You wouldn't be a fan of Charles Reid by any chance, would you? This is very similar to his work.

Hi Thea, Well spotted Here is the post that went with it on my blog. All the best Steve. " I've been getting a little more practice with a medium I really neglect but would like to master (should only take the rest of my life then). I'm using photo's as a reference, and studying the likes of Charles Reid, John Singer Sargent, and Edward Seago et al. The list goes on, but if I had to define the type of watercolours I like, I'd probably say the work is loose and alive. I've a long way to go but I'm looking forward to the challenge."
