Thanks for having a look and commenting David Stephen Dixie Spencer Marjorie. Yes I thought I’d found a priceless nugget of the purest Pink! Blackadder fans will know what I mean. Except Percy’s alchemy created nugget was Green

Love how you have painted this Martin. Such a strong sense of place and the stones and plants in the water are so naturally placed.

Sketched En Plein Air with Fude Pen and completed indoors with watercolour. The light was intense reflecting strong blue skies in the water. When I’d finished sketching I turned to see a bright pink object on the dark peat ground. It looked like bubblegum. I thought it odd because it wasn’t there when I started.
