Green and Silver – The Three Clouds,Thomas Colville Fine Art

The washes were allowed to merge into each other so that the horizon line and the edge of sea are softened and hazy, and some brushstrokes were allowed to run into others, creating atmospheric effects in the sky, complex wave patterns, and texture on the beach. The butterfly and the figures, on the other hand, were added precisely with a small pointed brush in shades of brown and grey.
