Creating distance and a focal point in this London cityscape painting - Paul Kenton

Описание

See how I achieve a sense of distance, harmony and atmosphere in this painting of the view overlooking London, the Thames and Tower Bridge. This was a really fun painting to create, using gouache to build loose layers of colour, before adding details and elements of interest with pen.

Day 79 of my 365 day painting challenge. Available to purchase at the end of the project - more info coming soon.

Thanks for watching!
