Old Gate

The most difficult thing I have found with watercolour is working from light to dark as my head wants to do it the other way around which is usually opposite to oil and pastel.

This one I spent about three hours on yesterday and decided to share it with you.

Size: 38 x 28 centimeters (unframed)
Paper: Arches 640 gsm rough.
Paint: Permanent Rose, Burnt Sienna, Raw Sienna, Cobalt Blue, Ultramarine Blue, Viridian, & Cad Red.

Now this watercolour is just up my alley. I love the whole look of this painting. Reminds me of places I have been.

Possibly you have seen it as it is between Melrose and Wilmington.
