Romany Gypsy Wagon - original ink painting

Description

Painted on 300g quality watercolour paper. I have used Winsor and Newton drawing inks to create wonderful jewel-like colours. It has proved tricky to capture these on camera but I hope you can see the stunning vibrancy of the inks.

The canvas of the roll-top wagon is jade green, and the surrounding woodwork a punchy bright pink. The decorative scroll-work is picked out in metallic gold which really does glint in the light! The trolley of the wagon is painted golden yellow with black wheels. I have added ears of wheat and their grass leaves around the bottom of the picture. I painted these in sandy caramel tones which I chose to contrast with the bright wagon.
Just inside the wagon doorway you can see a glimpse of fabric quilts and cushions. These are painted in pink and coral shades.

The painting measures 30cm x 39cm. I recommend the painting is framed with a acid-free mount to prevent moisure/condensation from coming into contact with the inks. If you are looking for a ready-made framing option, Ikea has frames that will suit which come with a cut mount.

I will send the painting in a card backed envelope with additional support card added to ensure the picture arrives to you in perfect condition. I post first class.
