Santa Cruz, Tenerife, 15" x 11".
Plaza El Patriotismo, a busy square in the main city in Tenerife. In this painting I have a cool left hand side and a warm right hand side - generally a pleasing thing to have in a watercolour. The right hand buildings were done in a loose style with a suggestion of a few windows and perspective. I don't normally paint around tree trunks against a dark background, but here there is only three, so a fairly easy think to do and of course date palm tree trunks are rarely 100% vertical with smooth sides.
