Original artwork description:

Trebah, Cornwall
A beautiful oasis,
Many subtropical plants,
Rhododendrons, palms, echuims,
Above the Helford river,
Happy fond memories.

Words and experiences of past times on holiday in Southern Cornwall.
Original illustrative watercolour on bockingford cold pressed 300gsm 140lb.
I drew out the design with a light pencil in areas where the plants are. The background was wet on wet and a very pale wash for the sky. I used sable hair brushes and painted the detail carefully, adding light shades then darker tones to bring out the colours- light.
I had this painting in my portfolio for a number of years and decided to resurrect it plus it’s very nostalgic for me to see how my artworks have developed over the years.

Materials used:

Cold pressed watercolour paper bockingford 300gsm 140lb, sable hair brushes, Windsor and Newton watercolours,
