Chipping Sodbury High Street 4

Landscape Watercolour of Chipping Sodbury, 22" x 15".

A view of the top end of Chipping Sodbury High Street, away from the shops and mainly private houses or offices.  Sometimes between the houses, are small archways to small mews and back gardens.  Most of the houses are characterised by repeated gable windows (easier to paint head-on!). Chipping Sodbury has apparently the second widest 'market town' high street in the UK!  Major challenge painting the buildings here are whether to paint all the white window frames, so I've just suggested a few here, painted in with weak white gouache.

Excellent work Tim. It could be any small town in England.

The cotswold lane picture in your previous post is fabulous. Congratulations on the sale! I like the way you've done the windows in this High Street picture, and thank you for sharing your method. It's that economy, that deft touch that you do so well.

Thank you Doug. Yes I agree.
