A Calm Day in the Peaks by Barbara Barlow for Three Counties Open 2022

Painting by artist Barbara Barlow titled A Calm Day in the Peaks by Barbara Barlow for Three Counties Open 2022.

Artwork Size: 37.5 cm x 46 cm

Watercolour on paper

A loose and free watercolour of a fell side landscape. It is not representational but abstract and I focus on correct tones but I do not stay faithful to realistic colours. Instead I choose light washes and gestural lines with a rigger brush to create depth of field, hints at water and rocks in the foreground.
