Sometimes it's interesting to take a composition that you painted in one medium and do another version in a different one. Sand Dunes and Shadows was painted in acrylic in May last year. The second painting was painted recently when I was demonstrating at the Living Crafts event at the Priory in Christchurch. I like the warmth of the colours in the watercolour. The acrylic has more of a cooler evening atmosphere. I wonder what this composition would transform into if I used printmaking techniques.....

  2. Very interesting to see how a subject can take on a certain look depending on the medium. I love both of these. Thank you for such an informative post.

  5. Hi Bruce, thank you!

    Hello Lorraine, thank you very much. I enjoyed playing with all the linear elements.

    Hi Judy, we are having some really nice hot and sunny weather at the moment and shadows keep catching my eye. It could be a new theme to explore...
