Excellent picture.
Thank you, FQ. Yes, I do a fair bit in oils, not alpines though. The only time I tried to get take them on a flight, they took the oils away ~ "combustable materials, sir"
I generally do portraits in oils, cos you can make loads of mistakes and fix them! Water colours are unforgiving, the whole thing has to be planned,and each stage got right.
It's a doddle doing alpines, though, you start off with a page full of white stuff!
