Resting place

 


This watercolour is inspired by the many benches that provide resting places for those that walk in our beautiful nature. These benches usually are along the paths and sometimes a bit weathered and most of the times occupied by other nature lovers.

As we walked a path on the 'Kalmthoutse Heide' last weekend I imagined how it would be if there was a more luxurious resting place in the woods. 

The forest scene is real though a bit simplified, I made some reference pictures for this painting. The chaise longue is inspired by Internet pictures and 'added to the landscape' at a nice spot amongst the trees.

The result is what I hoped for, a nice luxurious resting place in the woods.

The information about the materials I have used, the size and availability of this watercolour painting and - if you are interested in my original artworks - my contact information can all be found in my Tumblr blog.
