I loved the challenge of this scene particularly with unforgiving watercolours. The reflections in the sun glasses, the shadows of the straw hat cast on Christine's face and the lawn chair were great fun. I have included clues like the tent trailer, picnic cooler and picknick table to show that summer sun and Christine go together. This is one of several watercolours I have pulled from a 1990 personal collection. The way that I paint with watercolour allows me to do a good deal of preliminary sketching before I apply the colour.
