About this artwork
An original watercolour picture created on 04.09.2020. Painted on Bockingford watercolour paper 90lbs.
This work has a lot of character, just as well, as it has been through a lot, including several washes. Although not smooth, as the optimum should be, it does have texture. A middle aged man, in the middle of the night, comes across a small pool of water, where 3 nymphs are bathing.
I used an effect called chiaroscuro, where the subject is in full… light, while the back ground is kept very dark. I have not seen examples in watercolour, but no doubt there must be some out there. From a distance of a metre or more, it works, the nymphs look attractive enough! However, being honest, it is a case of "nice from afar...but far from nice! This is different.

Credentials

I, Stephen Alpe, a self-taught watercolourist, started painting in watercolours back in 1986. Impressed by the artwork in ornithological books illustrated by artits such as David Reid-Henry. I strived to achieve the same level of excellence, but, where as, Reid Henry made it look like the subjects were about to fly off the page, my initial efforts looked like they had been carved out of stone!
I did, in time improve and was able to illustrate a few calendars and magazines.
On moving to the UK in 2007, I moved into painting landscapes and news items that caught my imagination. From 2012, I began to notice the works of the street artist Banksy. Other artists that I admire include Wassily Kadinski, Joan Miro and Pol Ledent.
