Artist's Comments

I painted this a while ago before my digital obsession took hold.
Just found it lurking in a file covered in cobwebs :giggle:
Pure watercolour on stretched 90lb Bockingford. I always paint strong colours, I never got the hang of the beautiful soft watercolour washes that I admire.

Fond regards to you all

Pat :heart:

Yay for Apathy!

This wouldn't be NEARLY as striking if it was done in softer colors... The knot in the wood and the reflections in the silver - everything in this would lose something if it weren't for the "white whites" and the "dark darks" that you've achieved. Perhaps the shadows could have been "punched" a little more, but even that is SO minor and more a matter of personal preference, I think. If I could've painted like that, I don't know that I ever would have even tried digital - but my watercolors always looked like MUD - lol! Beautiful work...
