Sherston, UK, Watercolour, 15" x 11"
A third painting from my summer day trip to local village Sherston. Love the bunting out in the street and a great tool to link two sides of the street from a composition point of view. I normally avoid painting cars side on, but here I think it works by not making a big feature of them with all the trimmings and wheel arches and so on.

Iron Acton, UK, Watercolour, 15" x 11"
The pretty village of Iron Acton, close to where I live. Quite a simple scene and I made a focus of the windscreen. Nice and bright against a dark background and a slight curve of reflection of the building to make it a little more interesting.

Livorno, Italy, 15" x 11"
Via Arsenale, from the port to the town. A busy road with lots of port traffic. I ended up with bands of cool and warm - cool sky, warm buildings then cool foreground and shadows. Not sure what was happening in the bottom right corner - I dabbed my fingertip in the still wet paint, ended up with a circle, so I started making abstract shapes in there.

Libourne, France, Watercolour, 15" x 11"
The Place des Martyrs de la Resistance, outside the main Railway station. Just an ordinary scene really, looking almost into the scene and a useful pedestrian crossing to help lead the eye into the composition. The buildings in the area have a lovely feel of minor decay which I try to portray with a bit of splattering and different colours in the walls. Quite a busy spot as there's a little cafe opposite, just before you get to the Station.

Fabriano, Italy, Watercolour, 15" x 11"
I'm in to splattering at the moment - in moderation though. Trying not to overdo it. But I thought the lucky strike on the nearby car wheel arch was just on target. Normally with wheels of cars, I try to understate them. To me they just don't look right with perfect wheels - tyres and so on.

Funchal, Madiera, 15" x 11"
One of the main, wide streets leading down to the sea. A bit of a contra jour, painting into the light. I like to rough up pedestrian crossings - they wouldn't look right being too perfect with nice edges and clean white stripes. So I deliberately paint them in quite quickly - of course following the lines of my initial pencil drawing.
