Watercolour of Cagliari, Sicily, 15" x 11" on Saunders Waterford Rough 300gms.
One side of the Piazza Yenne in Cagliari stands this rather ornate bus stop (or it might have been a tourist bus stop). I thought it made a good subject with the highlights of a litter bin and the surrounding pavement. Foreground was painted in two washes, with the second leaving some indication of the foreground pedestrian crossing. Right hand tree and building were painted fairly loosely and with dry brush for making architectural details.




Super painting Tim, I like your strong shadows.
