Walk Fourteen – After the rain

I waited until there was a break in the downpour of rain. After the green dampness of the track alongside Nashe’s Farm, Rufus and I were enveloped by the sickly sweet scent of oil seed rape flowers and dazzled with brilliant yellow on both sides of the Cap Cottages lane. The ground was muddy so I stood and drew the bare bones of the view with a pen, but the Paynes grey stormy sky contrasting with the vivid field was crying out for a colour treatment so I added the watercolour back at home.
