Porthleven, Cornwall, 15" x 11".
One of my last paintings on some old T H Saunders watercolour paper. I will miss it and difficult to come by in the UK now. Well the subject here is a view high up on the harbour wall down to 5 boats at low tide. Somehow, I managed to get in every colour imaginable into the harbour floor. While still damp, I lifted out the reflections of the two left hand boats and added some lemon yellow to the middle boat reflection. White gouache was used for rigging and boat details.
It's beautiful Tim, love the colours.

That looks impressive and I'll bet it was tricky to paint!
