Original artwork description:

Japanese cherry blossoms, Kingston lacy gardens, Dorset
A cold day still in Spring,
Overcast sky with silver grey and a pale glow,
The bare tall trees,
A dense, dark green fir tree,
Pretty pink blossoms stand on the sloping lawn.

Words and expression of a special place that I visit often throughout the seasons.
Original impressionist watercolour on extra rough textured watercolour paper 425 gsm 200 lb bockingford.
I created this watercolour painting that is unframed from my observations and visual memory. I used wet on wet washes for the background with my Chinese hake brush and applied the trees with a filbert brush plus a Japanese mop squirrel hair brush pressing the paint to create the detail.

Materials used:

Extra rough textured watercolour paper bockingford 425 gsm 200 lb, French artists watercolour paint, Windsor and Newton watercolours, Japanese mop squirrel hair brush, filbert brush, Chinese hake,
