The Viewing
I have done this for the Just Watercolours challenge. I looked at the photo and my eyes were drawn to the right hand side so I decided to concentrate on this. I wanted to take myself out of my comfort zone and not dwell on detail which I find quite difficult. As I have just returned to watercolours I also wanted to play with wet washes and see what I could achieve. I used just three colours, paynes grey, yellow ochre and burnt sienna.
