The Lavender Fields of France with Chateau – in Watercolours
What could be more fitting for the time of year, than this beautiful painting of the lavender fields in France. Capturing the calm, warm days and the bright blues and violets of the lavender, this painting also features a chateau or French country house to add to the atmosphere.
This painting uses a variety of techniques, developed by Matthew, which will help to further improve your watercolour skills, suitable for beginners and more experienced painters.
(Note: pre drawn 100% cotton paper is available, so no drawing required. This is optional)
