Cittadella from Zebbug Belvedere by Thalia Stones

Comments

Lots of green but variation too, which "reads" well. Nice composition too, my eye moves all around.

Beautiful Thalia. It has such a natural flow and fades off into the distance with aplomb.

Thank you, Marjorie, Linda and Carole, for your kind encouragement. People who only come here between May and October [i.e. 50 shades of brown] never believe my bright green pictures. Summer here is near desert as it very rarely rains!

The eye moves nicely around and rests on the Citadel. I do like these large vista's Thalia, nicely done.

Thank you all so very much. You are all really kind. Your comments are really helping me and encouragement is often needed over here...no art groups to join!!! I really miss them ... even Urban Sketchers has only me at the moment!!!

Painted plein air one morning, later than my normal early hours, I was waiting for the mist to clear. It didn't, as it was very much a south wind, which also meant very humid thus not good for water colour. Lots of the dreaded green in this, mixed mainly, but with my favourite Perylene touched in for the darkest transparent darks.
