Hill Giant

A new painting - watercolour, gouache and pencil crayon on hot press paper - 15 x 20, which is a bit larger than I normally work but I wanted to push this one a little. The scan didn't quite capture it. The piece is actually a bit darker, but all in all it's pretty close - thanks Patricia :)

    It's so lush. Absolutely gorgeous. I do love that sort of muddy palette you use, looks so much more natural and real that way..

    Now we really can see ,he is some kind of moovinghelp for the witch with her house and tree. And he already regrets that he offered his help, it is heavier than he thought.He did not expect that she would insist to take the tree with her. So the girls are...

    It is amazing how much your paintings tell!
