Trying out my new draughtsman board - a made up French scene

Watercolour, 22" x 15"

So I had just purchased a second hand draughtsman board, and after setup had to try a half sheet scene to see how I got on. It took a bit of getting used to as regards getting the lighting correct (I have an angle poise lamp above the board) and the angle of the board (the easel I mainly use can be tilted in all sorts of directions). So far so good. A simple scene, contre jour with foreground, middle ground and background. Now onto the next one!

Painted on Saunders Waterford, 300 gms, NOT.
