Brollies in the Rain came about when I went to see the Poppies at the Tower of London. It was a miserable day, quite common in the UK. A Typical Day in fact. Lots of people were milling around with the most beautiful brollies. This was my favourite image of the many I took that day.

Creation: The picture was initially drawn with pencil onto watercolourpaper stuck onto plywood. These lines were then drawn over using masking fluid and then painted using watercolour paint and acrylic ink. Salt was also used in the process and some of the ink blown around using a straw. Once the painting was dry the masking fluid was removed to reveal the finished painting. The original painting is 30cm high by 45cm wide and was created in England in 2015.
Original Painting has sold but prints are available.
