Rowland Hilder's "Painting Landscapes in Watercolour" .... "country lane" step by step


...about 25 years ago I was very lucky to visit Rowland Hilder's studio with my father in Blackheath .... I'll never forget him, his studio and his work .... he demonstrated on a full sheet how to paint a simple "flat wash" .... as we were leaving the studio he gave me my first ever watercolour book "STARTING WITH WATERCOLOUR " .... this is a step by step I painted recently of a " country lane " from "Painting Landscapes in Watercolour" by Rowland Hilder....alot of his work can be seen by goggling "images by Rowland Hilder"
