More Gary houses, in nice bright colours. He likes basing everything - grass, trees, roofs - on a strong yellow. I use new gamboge - I think he uses cadmium yellow - then we drop in some greens or burnt sienna as needed. It gives a very warm undertone that I love.
These do all kind of look the same but I am enjoying it.
Because of the sketchbook I am doing them all the same size - he doesn't - so some are simple with lots of spare space and some are quite densely drawn.
And lastly a winter scene. Snow that just exists because of a shadow. Cool ... but you can see a bit of bleeding there. That shouldn't happen on dry paper, I will try another sketchbook next time.
Wonderful.
