Another Exhibition piece. This one clearly shows the real LONDON WEATHER, rain, rain and rain!!! Sometimes its cats and dogs all day. That's the mood I have tried to capture here, with an old lady that just must go out in it to do her shopping! Typical!

This was done with Watercolour but as usual I end up adding the usual additives(coloured pencil, ink, wax crayon)
Don't forget to vote here It is possible!!!

Pouring all week here in our (usually dry) locale, too! A very lovely painting. I've been enjoying your color work.
Many good wishes on your competition, and I did VOTE for you! (and added a link that I hope people will follow and also vote)
Beautiful piece! Good luck with the voting!
Beautiful. Her reflection is (dare I say it)perfect; you even have the detail of her coat down to the outline. Her umbrella is another point of interest; the pattern on it looks really convincing. What really impresses me is the partition of buildings and trees -all well drawn in thier own rights, but also finely reflected on the ground that gives a startling sense of depth to the picture. Honestly, aside from the far distant background which seems a little fuzzy in a way that doesn't compliment the natural "fuzziness" of the piece, everything in this is exactly as it is supposed to be, and I really do not know what else to say. You are a wonder to your craft.
Thanks R.Garriott! Great! I am encouraged-I am 4th this morning, with 3 days to go! Anything can happen it is possible!!
