I've gone for the smaller 7" x 5" format in this watercolour of Sutton Park near to Boldmere Gate. It's here in Sutton Park where I miss the winter snow we had the most. The open land looked fantastic covered in blanket white.
I've started work on volume 1 of 'My Watercolour Diary' where this blog will be produced in a book format. Again, it will be paperback black and white. I've looked at some of my paintings I've put in the book so far and to be honest I almost prefer them in black and white.

Many thanks for the words of encouragement Chaudhary.

Well that's good, because it means that you must be getting your tonal values right. :-)
I was thinking about that Keith as I was flicking through them. The majority look OK. There are maybe one or two I haven’t done very well and there’s very little contrast but I think on the whole I may get away with it. It’ll certainly be interesting to gauge people’s reaction.
