Riverbed
This painting is watercolour on stretched Saunders cold pressed medium, 600gsm paper.
The paint is all transparent Windsor and Newton watercolour.
I have used Windsor and Newton Masking fluid for the ripples.
This is a new activity for me, a sort of “off shoot” from the boats and water, I thought I would have a go at just water this time.
Thank you all so very much for all the kind comments, faves and watches. I really appreciate these.
