SEEMS TO HAVE PASSED – WATERCOLOUR PAINTING

This is somewhere around where I live, but I cant recall the precise location. I liked the haphazard nature of the receding fence and decided to add a passing storm, then stirred in some resultant puddles, all to pile on some atmosphere. The emerging sun creates counterchange by casting a bit of light on the wet, reflective surfaces down the winding lane – and now the storm’s passed, you can continue on your way.

It’s the kind of weather we’ve been getting of late.

THE BUS ARRIVES ON LORD STREET – WATERCOLOUR PAINTING

Another in a long series of paintings of my town’s main street. There are a couple of exhibitions coming up that are held on this street, so it is useful to have something of local interest to display. Add that to the fact that I am a sucker for the winter sunsets here – a painting is inevitable. There may be another to come.

CRESCENT ROAD, BIRKDALE – WATERCOLOUR PAINTING

Most mornings I cross Crescent Road and see this view. It is close to where I live and on a sunny morning the glow of the red bricks complementing the verdant hedges and other foliage as well as the patterns of light and shade always captures my attention. So I thought I would paint it and add it to my small collection of local paintings. And here it is for you, a small snapshot of where I live.
