I probably could have left this painting after the first 20 seconds or so. But there is a tendency in me to keep making marks and keep evolving the artwork. This is not finished yet. I may post a second instalment of where this painting goes but I still agree with my words at the end in terms of taking the eye further into the centre of the page and the placement of some stronger tones by way of trees on the right side. I hope you enjoyed watching the process. I put in an occasional sped up section with music when I was not saying anything so the video was not too long.
Paper: this was painted on Somerset 300gsm, white, 56m x 76cm.

Equipment: MDF board, 3M magic tape, Ron Ranson hake brushes (1 inch and 2 inch) holbein hake brushes and one Silver brush 5514S Alpine white blender. Spray bottle, tissues, small knife and razor blade

Rives BFK etching paper. Probably best to source this from your local store so you can look after the paper and not have it posted unless you are buying a large amount of paper and it will be looked after. There is nothing worse than getting hundreds of sheets all with a indent in them. Having said that you can actually source this paper from amazon:

Some people have been extremely happy with the state of the paper when it arrived (and some not!)
I love this paper it is soft and lights are lifted easily from it.
