Original artwork description:

Badbury rings, Dorset
Ancient hill fort,
Sunset colours,
Bushy Summer trees,
A patch of rusty red poppies, seed heads and grasses,
Peaceful.

Words and feelings.
A beautiful and meaningful area of the Dorset landscape.
Original impressionist watercolour on extra rough textured watercolour paper 425 gsm 200lb.
Loose wet on wet washes for the background were applied and I used a sable hair brush. An anticlockwise and clockwise brushstroke technique was applied for the summer trees. I pressed the paint on for the poppies, seed heads and I used my nail to etch out the paint for the grasses.

Materials used:

Extra rough textured watercolour paper 425 gsm 200lb bockingford , sable hair brush, Chinese brush, Peobeo watercolour paint,
