Description Finally back home after a pretty long and chaotic trip yet full of surprises.

I got my painting knives back - which I use to prepare watercolour ground on canvas - so I'm happy I'll be able to paint more pieces like this one in the future (:

"Connemara" watercolours on canvas done in September (30*40cm)

You have a very unique style / technique, and it works so well with the theme of your work. 
I also like the colours and composition of your painting. As always: great job!

That is really amazing looking!  I've never seen that technique before.  Do you wet the paper first and then use the knives to apply the ground?

Thanks a lot! (:
It's actually painted on canvas. I use knives to apply white watercolour ground or white gesso + transparent watercolour ground directly on the canvas, and 24 hours later I can paint with watercolours.

I've been there over 10 years ago and have some lovely memories. This year I've been to Ireland again, but didn't make it to Connemara. I hope to visit it again soon, it's a very rough landscape, but I adore landscapes like this
