Inspired by the wild

I've painted a series of watercolour original works on paper to accompany my new series of paintings 'beneath the surface.' I have looked closely at wild flowers and weeds often overlooked- in particular the Comfrey and Symphytum that grows along the hedgerows and corners of the pavements!

I love watercolour for it's freedom - never knowing exactly where the water and pigment will lead...but always beautiful. I've found that less is more. A light touch when painting with watercolour is vital - knowing when to stop.
