Thatched Cottages

Elephant Green

This painting is done from one of my own pictures. It is of a row of thatched cottages located in Newport, Essex.

For this piece I have used ink and bleach. This media allows me to be more creative in my style as I can use mark making techniques to greater effect. I also like the colour left behind when the bleach is applied. This goldeny brown gives the piece a much more rustic feel.
