Stepping up from smaller sized cards, this A3 sized foxglove landscape with a stream is the main image on the program "A Bigger Picture" DVD.


The sky involves hot air blowing to blend the colours & introduce that "airy" feeling of space & movement. This piece was filmed during its making so you can see the sky in step by step lesson. The landscape takes into full account the colour reflection from the sky & a sense of colour harmony within the image.


The stream is rubbed out through the foreground with soft tissue, then coloured back in as necessary. The foxglove "bells" are created with the iron tip and the finer detailed graphics, like the dragonflies are added with the stylus using the drawing tip.
