The Kent Cultural Baton, painting 3/5

The Turner Contemporary Gallery, Margate © Peter Gander
The main painting of the day was this one, drawn with a 6B pencil first. Painted on Hahnemuele 500gsm Andalucia rough paper. The thick paper absorbed the sky blue well in a flat way, yet was rough enough to give a good texture in the sea too, when a drier brush was employed.
