Home Page My little sketch soon gets over-worked as I pile on more 'dry-brush' watercolour in an attempt to show the contrast between deep shadow and glowing highlights. I'm frustrated too because I can't capture the swishing of the leaves in the breeze; a gentle waving, beckoning motion. While I can't deny that I find it frustrating to be unable to capture on paper a scene that is right there in front of my eyes, I can console myself with the thought that I'm learning from my mistakes and, who knows, next time I might get nearer to capturing that illuminating moment.
