About
Caroline Whittaker writes:
I am excited by the way watercolour plays, and lets you know where it wants to go and what it wants to be. I delight in the bold brightness of acrylics, and the way the colours flow and blend, and I love the concentration required for pen and ink work.
Painting and drawing give me immense pleasure, I get lost in a world of my own.
My watercolour collection of pebble paintings is inspired by my love of beaches, rockpools, pebbles and streams and is painted in a loose style, being led by the textures and shapes created by the initial wash.
The detailed areas with misty edges hopefully convey the same feelings of reflective calm that I feel when I paint them.
My acrylics are bright but also subtle, frequently using a palette knife, and my pen and ink drawings (mainly town/cityscapes) are detailed and sometimes bold.
