Captain Ratbeard Watercolour & Gouache 24 x 31cm Ahoy m'hearties! Shiver m'timbers and host the main sail (blimey I don't I'll keep this pirate talk going), if it isn't Captain Ratbeard and his pi-rat-ical crew (get it?). I nearly had as much fun painting the Captain as writing this blog post. Here is one of those few examples of when the finished piece is very similar to the fleeting image I had in my mind's eye.

Cheetah Chase (Past The Finish Line)

NOVEMBER 13, 2013

I recently finished two paintings, here's the first. Cheetah Chase Watercolour & Gouache 24 x 31cm I had a right old time trying to get just the right colour in the stonework, I think I painted the column about 4 times. I have always struggled with lighter values in watercolour because there is so little room for manoeuvre when you use the white of the paper to act as your pastel white.
