‘Snowshill – Cotswolds’

This tiny little Cotwold village is a beautiful part of the country to visit. Just a short drive out of the village and you end up via the farm tracks emerging into the most wonderful landscape of rolling fields, which seem to stretch unbroken for miles. When we first discovered this place over 25 years ago it was like driving into a breathtaking dream. At the right time of the year the lavender farms add fabulous colour too! The Ink sketch above is looking over the graveyard to the little stone cottages and to what was obviously once the village post box on the wall of the end house.

Colourful Mountain Stream – Pen and Inks

This simple pen and ink illustration really came to life when I added the coloured inks. The colours I used gave it an Autumnal feel which is vividly contrasted by the blues of the stream. I think the best thing about this picture is the depth within the water given by adding varied amounts of the blue to create shadows from the little islands.

Below is The same sketch but left as a black and white illustration to show the effect the colour has upon the scene!
