As I said in my previous post, I am preparing for two watercolour demos and getting them to run smoothly has taken a bit longer than I thought – but we’re there now.
Unfortunately I am halfway through a new painting because of this delay, so I thought I’d show an old painting of mine of a small village on the outskirts of Liverpool. It was done a long time ago and it quickly sold. I have kept an image of it on the internet and it has bought many enquiries and quite a few commissions and sales. I was proud of it at the time, still am, and it surprised me that I hadnt shown it on this blog before.
Normally, in the morning this road is very busy, as it serves as a short-cut. Sunday morning allows you to stand in the middle of the road. Though, I didnt paint it plein-air, as even on a Sunday there would be a few objections from motorists if I tried that stunt.
Other townscapes are available for sale on my website: grahammcquadefineart.com

Thanks Kingkang; bending light eh? I think it is fromthe shadow of the wall. But it does pull you into the picture – well that was the plan.

GORGEOUS light! And the way you’ve led us down the road, around the corner, is wonderful. It’s alive – I can hear early morning birdsong, &the scent of sun-warmed stone is rising in the air. Masterful beauty. ♥️
