Daily painting 9: 09/01/2019 The Thames near Orleans Gardens

oil on primed card 5x4"

Making the most of the clear weather I got down to the river Thames today and produced this plein air study. I'd forgotten how hard it is trying to pin down values in changing light conditions. I love the challenge though- got to get out and do some more soon.

I painted this from the steps near Orleans Gardens, Twickenham, looking over to the Ham side of the river.
