A Sunny day for a Sunny Subject. Sunflowers in Provence was the title, and it wasn't as easy as it looked. We spent a large part of the morning using masking fluid to paint out the sunflowers leaves, so that when we did a wash we could keep that part of the paper completely clean and white.
Using a limited pallette of about 5 paints we mixed up a variety of greens and yellows, and then different blues for the sky and the mountains in the distance.
A delicious lunch of Delia's Salmon with pecorino and pesto topping followed by Tana Ramsay's Rhubarb Fool. We needed the energy to rub all the masking fluid off after lunch, it took ages!
