Watermouth Bay, Devon UK, Watercolour, 15" x 11"
The small boatyard at Watermouth Bay in North Devon. Not a large boatyard, but in a very pretty location which I have painted a few times (especially the lifeboat at low tide). The boatyard runs up to the left. In front the ground slopes down to the sea, way over to the right. I tried to make a feature of the rocky foreground here and a small stream running under the pathway.

Ifracombe Harbour, Devon. A view from the dockside and a more commercial side of the harbour. A bit of gentle merging of the reflections with the harbour wall for cohesion. My source photo had the light in a completely different aspect, but I thought this one looked more appropriate with a bit of contre jour.
A bit of artist's licence with this one in that I don't think there is a 'cafe' right next to the lifeboat station, but I thought it helped the composition with some darker objects in the shade of the building. Then I went pretty abstract with the bottom left corner. Could be anything down there!
A subject I have done a few times before and as a painting before I used some hand-made paints, so I could compare the two. Watermouth Bay/Harbour is a great spot for painting, especially at low tide when you get the more interesting harbour bed exposed and some nice puddles with reflections.
Watercolor 15" x 11"
A bit of an imaginary one this. Just taking the outline of some buildings and loosely basing the composition on a view towards Kingswear on the other side of the river Dart from Dartsmouth. I'm going for a fairly calm scene here and a touch of bright light ober in the distance to the right.

Dartmouth, Devon, Watercolour, 15" x 11"
I'm doing a lot of pre-wetting the paper at the moment, to get a soft glow to light in the sky and the reflection in water. So here I applied to a scene I have done a few times before - the inner harbour in Dartmouth, Devon. I don't normally do a red sky, but went for a bit of atmosphere in this one and keeping it loose.

Kingswear, Devon, Watercolour, 15" x 11"
A recent demo to a local art group and an exercise in perspective. This is Kingswear in Devon, with a road on the left going uphill and a road on the right going down to the ferry station on the river. Plus added complication of the buildings in the middle ground and the other side of the river (Datrmouth town). Tricky.

Plymouth, Devon, Watercolour, 15" x 11"
Some small boats at low tide on the River Tamar in Devon, UK. Some needed a lick of paint (sorry owners) but a lovely subject to paint none the less.
