Bristol, UK, 15" x 11".
The boatyard at the end of the Bristol waterfront in the area of 'Hotwells'. An unusual day when there's no boats in - either in the water or on dry dock. I think with hindsight I could have included one or two boats moored up on the left side. Anyway, the scene for me made a good subject for watercolour with tonal contrasts - the light roof tops and docks up against the dark background of the buildings. I liked the grey of the background building walls, but just can't remember what the mix was!
