    Truly love this…..You have such an enviable ability to depict your beloved country, Douglas ! It seems you just have to sit back in awe looking around you at what nature can offer when it pulls out its paintbox……..and here what I like most is the ‘less is more’ of its beauty ! …
  • Thanks Corinne, what a beautiful comment, especially coming from someone who handles watercolours as well as you do.

    NIce one doug – ( the large Island is Verte Island ) – you can almost see Red Rock !! I like the mauve tones in this one

  • Thanks, I thought I would try something a little different! It was hard to photograph this painting to show the colours accurately.
