Watercolour on paper
Signed certificate of authenticity.
Painted for and winner of the Hobarchies people section. Here is what the competition judge Trudi Harly wrote about my painting:
"Beautifully executed portrait using a limited palette, thoughtful presence of the sitter gazing upward in contemplation. Simplicity of form and space conjures up a sense of isolation and almost hopelessness, but at the same time providing a deep sense of inner strength. Depth is created by soft tonal variations with light gently illuminating the sitter’s left side and throwing the right into gentle shadow. Very effective use of the medium."
Painted using Daniel Smith extra fine watercolours and Winson & Newton professional watercolours on Arches 100% cotton 300gsm watercolour paper.
