Honeysuckle


Design taken from an old photo of honeysuckle in my garden last year. I'm beginning to despair of anything ever growing in my garden again after this freezing cold spring and now constant downpour of rain. It looks like a lake!

I used Ecoline watercolour inks for this. They are beautiful intense colours which can be diluted with water or not. I'm going to have to explore my love of bright colours.

  1. Love your new blog layout. Your honeysuckle watercolour is so vivid and bright. The pink is a stunning colour. Hopefully your garden will burst into colour very soon.

    1. Thanks Laura. I'm quite excited about painting/sketching again. I'm pinning copies of this in my garden in various places to make me think it's spring which seems to have been held up this year in the UK :-)
