Porthleven, Cornwall, 15" x 11".
A view along the front of the Harbour Inn and harbour wall in Porthleven, Cornwall. Quite a simple composition but attempting to connect things together like the shadow across the middle. And I really only used 4 colours - Ultramarine Blue, Yellow Ochre, Burnt Sienna and a bit of Cadmium Red for the Life Buoy. Some people ask why do I leave the pencil lines still showing from my outline sketch. Well I think they help with the 'loose' feeling, but I do sometimes rub them out if there's some bare paper left as a highlight.
