Vyvyan Green
Semer Water, Yorkshire Dales:
Watercolour /gouache on paper: 10 x 14 on Bockingford 200lb
SOLD
Unusual for me not to include the sky, but the composition of this shot I took at the water's edge appealed to me.
As usual, I took some licence, but feel I was faithful to the scene.
I started this watercolour piece yesterday, today I felt I was overworking it so I grabbed the gouache, banged it on, and had a bit of a romp, lifting out, scrubbing, banging some more colour on, then sorting it all out - whatever it takes......... sometimes it's the only way....
It still needs a 'tweak', as I always do, but that'll be when I've not looked at it for a few days and can sneak up on it and try to view it as if for the first time....
And when you can, take a trip to Semer Water, there's something about the place that's..... magical.
