Derwent Dam

Derwent Dam
Acrylic On Canvas
20 x 30"
     A nice bit of neo gothic architecture. It's quite an impressive structure up close and is something I have wanted to paint for the last few years. Now I finally felt confident enough to tackle it and I'm pleased with the result. It was quite difficult to separate the fore and backgrounds with the dominance of green which In itself is always a difficult colour to work with. I think the lighter areas of the sky and the front of the dam help to separate the elements.
