Driving to Braemar the other day through the sun dappled birch forests of the Highlands. The birch was the first tree to appear in Scotland after the ice age. I love the black and white textured bark.
This is gouache again, trying to be a bit abstract and use limited colours. I wanted to capture the mystery and enticing quality of the woods. A tip from youtube is to block off the painting space using tape to produce a neat edge. It works well if you are doing something more abstract.

I really love this one Lal. The bright/limited colour looks amazing!!
Elinor, when I first saw this pop up on Instagram, I thought, "Oh, Elinor must be at a museum."
That is one very cool painting. :)
