Purple fig and dark olives in the sand. Little drawing for a foody thing - was it a menu? @christinabonnettart Can't remember now. Pen and watercolour sketch.

This is a detail from a softer part of an abstracted painting of a lane hedge where branches show through a haze of growth. Here you see those layers again - I forget how I did them in this! @christinabonnettart .

This is a bit of the smoke tree that inspires the colours in some of my paintings. The proper name is Cotinus coggygria. Although it is a tree, it's usually pruned to keep quite small in gardens. I had one that grew really big, but a severe winter did for it. I guess it was too exposed. .

Acrylics in transparent layers make the variations in the purples for this garden shrub, well you can't see the plant at at all as this is a close up of the paintwork and strokes. You'll need to go to my website, christinabonnett.com to see completed paintings! by @christinabonnettart .

Detail from a painting in the soggy weather series, washed after painting to soften. This one is a few trees in the valley already in shadow with the sunset struggling to show above the hills but under the clouds. by @christinabonnettart

This picture was taken one evening when visiting a friend in France - ages ago now. We were at a
restuarant next to an amazing pool that flowed over the rim and made it look as if the trees were growing
out of the water. It's good for colour reference, I think.

Detail from a small watercolour series I did during a showery spell. They looked too crisp so I washed
the paintings under a tap to soften them. The sun occasionally shines feebly through, especially in the
morning. by @christinabonnettart .
