Just starting a new blog. This is all about visual art. That means drawing and painting. Focusing on my artwork.
Not my first painting but certainly the first watercolour where I felt I have made significant progress. So there I was with this photograph of my best friend's dog. I had paper from a sketch book and I knew a bit about stretching watercolour paper. So I tried it with the sketchbook paper and it worked!! Then I drew the image and proceeded to paint it. I had some idea how the watercolours would work having seen an exhibition of the art of Ken Danby at the DeVooght Galleries in Vancouver. I had also done some watercolours before but in this one everything came together so perfectly. It would be a while before I came up with anything near this painting.
