Dorset in Gouache on grey paper - 5" x 7"
Even though August is supposed to be my printmaking month, I'm missing the little landscapes I was painting during my morning walks in July.
Since it's been too hot and I've been lacking motivation, I haven't been Sketchercising but when our friend Catherine M. sent some photos of a walk in the Dorset countryside, I decided to make it a gouache exercise. I'm still not at all comfortable with gouache but when I see what artists like Nathan Fowkes can do with opaque watercolour, I have to keep trying.
