ARTWORK SPOTLIGHT
Watercolour Landscape by Amber
created for the Endless Water project (Nov 19)
For the Endless Waters project the Studio Arts group looked at the nature of the River Duddon and the Wordsworth poems inspired by the same location. Each participant artist in the group developed their watercolour painting skills, with Amber using this technique to really advance her fantastic visual arts practise. This piece is full of energy and colour whilst retaining a natural beach palette, and the difference in scale of the artwork's elements also gives it a striking and dynamic quality.
