125 - TALL SHIPS LEAVING THE TYNE - DAVE EDWARDS - WATERCOLOUR - OCT 2003 by

FEATURED BY RIVER TYNE GROUP – 3rd February 2010

FEATURED BY SHAMELESS SELF-PROMOTION GROUP – 14th June 2011

…. here’s a watercolour I did in 2003. It is a relic of those days before I discovered Antoni Gaudi’s work. It is full of faults, but I rather like the atmosphere of it, despite the blatantly obvious flaws, such as the running downhill water and the flat lifeless clouds.

It is based upon the drawing of mine shown below. The colours are all imaginary (can’t you guess) so it must have been close to that time that my style started to develop … and is still developing.

    Oh, love the sky in this one!!! Stormy English weather, beautifully captured, almost Turneresque.

  • Wow …. thanks Alexandra :)

  • Interesting that you like the sky. It’s just been pointed out to me that it is appalling.
