Watercolour Landscapes

Watercolour paintings from Denman Island, en plein air, Summer of 2007.
I love the spontaneity of painting outdoors with a simple collection of watercolour pencils and a limited palette of paint. I'll be back for a Painting the Denman Village Workshop August 9 -10, 2008. For more workshop info Click Here.

These paintings were all done on Denman Island during a visit there to teach a workshop. From all reports everyone had as much fun as I did - exploring the island and experimenting with unusual colour combinations.
