This painting has A3 portrait orientation. It shows a view through an old stone or rock built arch. Through the arch is is the Mediterranean sea and a cloudless sky' On the right a headland covered in grass juts out. In front of it is a white yacht with a white sail. There are other boats; a white motor launch in the centre and two speed boats with long streaks of wash over on the left. Sitting on steps on the other side of the arch, is a person in a red jacket taking in the view.

Artwork Description

Watercolour on paper

Signed on the front.

This is from an art class entitled painters in the South of France. My inspiration is from Vincent van Gough who lived in Arles and used pointillism in his work, notably in one of his self-portraits. Pointillism is the practice of applying small strokes or dots of colour to a surface so that from a distance they visually blend together. I liked the effect and decided to have a go.
The view I used is through an arch at Ponte Venere, North west Italy. Ponte Venere is close to the French Mediterranean coast . It has the similar sunlight and blue skies and sea.

The picture is landscape orientation, roughly A3 size. It features a forest of trees painted in shades of blue-grey and their reflection in a pond. The pond is edged with grey-green reeds which are also reflected in the water. Close to the pond is a white-grey fallen tree which is also in the reflection. The land in the far background is yellow illustrating the sun coming through the trees. Nearer the ground is blue-grey and close to the pool, under the fallen tree the ground is rust.

This painting shows five different views of an unusual shaped teapot arranged in a semi-circle with their spouts facing inwards. The teapots are tall with a bent and twisted form. The spout is wiggly. The teapot views are side on, on the diagonals and front on and are coloured from left to right, green, white, purple, orange and black. The background behind the teapots is a series of semi-circular curves broken up into blocks of white, orange, green and purple. Each block and teapot is outlined in black. The foreground is a narrow semi-oval shape and similarly divided up into coloured blocks.
