Original Watercolour & Acrylic Ink Painting

The Victoria and Albert Museum Tea Room is one of my favourite interiors to study and paint. You will be seeing a few more interpretations of this subject. I started with loose watercolour washes, and not a drawing, in order to keep it fresh and atmospheric. Seeing where the brush takes me is what keeps me interested and excited about the painting process. Once those foundations were laid, I used acrylic inks for added tone, colour and relevant detail.
