Local Fuchsia


Enjoyed doing this picture in gouache over gouache used as watercolour, on handmade Indian paper. The paper is from L Cornellisen in London, a gorgeous art materials shop. Choosing an unusual paper for a project can really jump start you creatively...try a coloured paper or an unusual texture, this one is a very thick, off white, textural paper. The flowers grow in an amazing garden down the road from us, which is always perfect and full of flower and colour right through the year.
