Chris Hankey watercolours

Sunset N0.4

 

One of a few small watercolours…..and they are small. I tend to take watercolours out with me when cycling simply using masking tape to attach 4 to the backs of sketchbooks. They are all 8.5×13 cm that’s image size and 18.5×23.5 cm with the window mount.

In the studio

Working in the studio….two paintings. The one on the easel is just about finished. The paint will need to dry for several days after which maybe a glaze or two. And that will e just about it. It shows the planet Venus moments before Sunrise.

Sunset from St Agnes. Isles of Scilly

Sunset from St Agnes Isles of Scilly. Oil on canvas 77×153 cm 2017 £2500

This painting just finished is from my last visit to the Isles of Scilly, and has taken some time to compete. Rather than working outside on this painting I have taken created this painting from numerous small waterolours and sketches done while visiting St Agnes. This is one of several underway and this is the first to be finished.
