Original artwork description:

Looking up to the blue sky
Cool breeze,
Energising feel,
Tree colour,
Rose bay willow herb,
Castle hill, Shaftesbury, North Dorset.

Words and thoughts of a local scene where I live in June 2025.
Original impressionist watercolour on textured watercolour paper Fabriano 300gsm 140lb.
I created this scene from seeing and feeling the sky - landscape. I used a wet on wet technique for the back washes then a scrubbing technique with my hogs hair brush for the trees. I was expressive in my approach and went into my visual memory. I walk Castle hill often and it’s very steep. It is very special environment for many plants, trees and flowers.
All my original watercolour paintings are signed on the back, titled and dated.

Materials used:

Textured watercolour paper Fabriano 300gsm 140lb, hogs hair brush, Chinese brush, filbert brush, Windsor and Newton watercolours,
