Landscape Watercolour of Kusadisi, 15" x 11"
The port area of Kusadisi, Turkey, with the mountains behind the town. Key steps for this painting were 1) Sky wash from top to bottom, cutting round the car, figures and pedestrian crossing. 2) After that was dry, wet the areas where the mist will be over the mountains, then drop in the darker was of the mountain. 3) Middle ground trees and buildings on left and right. 4) Car shadows and then the figures, and foreground shadow and 5) White highlights (not too many) on figures and signpost. 6) Tyre marks on road with dry brush strokes.
