Market Day
Todays watercolour is a market day in a North Yorkshire town. I like to put lights against darks in order to create sparkle. I do leave alot of white paper but I think that adds to the atmosphere. The chap with the white hat and jacket looks rather smart dont you think?
I hope this appeals to you.

Hello Alek
Oh yes you could I`m sure!
I am pleased you like the painting too.
Kind Regards
Nice work Trevor. I agree, the white paper adds the immediacy one feels if they were actually there. The sketch like quality also suggests that this is a brief moment in time passing by us.
Hello Stephen
Thank you for visiting and your comments.
Time is certainly going quickly.
A bit scary dont you think.

Yes, he does look like quite the Dapper Dan. I just love the way you have the background fade into a colorful mist.
Hello Sheila
Its good to hear from you.
Perhaps the dapper has got a date.
Glad you like the mood.

Dapper is as dapper does, Trevor. Love it as always. Tina

hi Trevor!! yes, you are right!! white works!! this watercolour is simply great! what an artist does, count. what he doesn´t, count too. very good idea your way to use white
Thank you Benjaminlois

I like these three scenes Trevor! The wonderful thing about watercolour is the blotchyness and immediacy. Every stroke... or blank... is there in the final picture.
Hello Mark
Your desciption "blotchyness" is cool.
I will use that term in my demonstrations. You are right about watercolours. There is not another medium like it for immediacy and also "mistakes".

I love this painting and it does give me the feeling that he is a very talented and elegant man.
He's a dapper dandy. :)
Your technique wet on wet I find it very difficult and challanging but you did it quite smoothly mind show us the technique on you tube?
