Avebury, England, 15" x 11".
A composition based on a reference photo from a visit to this pretty village last year. I think the key part to this painting was the first wash - over the whole paper starting with the sky and then a bit warmer on the left hand side with the buildings and a bit of cool blue for the road and then finally the grass at bottom left. While the wash was still moist, different colours were 'dropped' in. Then everything was left to dry completely. The second dark was was added and created the form of the buildings, shadows and car coming towards us.



Maybe, the two lovely figures look a little bit too high for the scene. But of course, it doesn't make any less amazing composition.
