Greeting Card Durham Impression

Greeting Card Durham Impression. Is an A5 size Greeting card, with a watercolour painted ‘Splash’ picture of the Durham City skyline. With Durham Cathedral as the main element in this painting by local North East artist Louisa E. Taylor. This Durham Cathedral painting, uses more soft pastel tones, they are more pink, yellow and orange. With the odd splash of blue and green mixed in, to provide some contrast. In this watercolour painting, Louisa’s technique has been to use more watercolour wash on the base of the painting and not so much ‘Splash’. Where she has, this has been confined mostly to the centre of the painting. The sky is similar, it is mostly a light, pale watercolour wash, with just a couple of darker splashes of paint to add interest. While this is a softer painting, Durham Cathedral is quite bold and is well defined. The Cathedral is very large in this painting, with only part of Durham Castle showing on the left hand side of the picture.

Her main paintings are of the Newcastle skyline, buildings and bridges, here she has turned her brushes and creativity to the beautiful buildings of Durham City.  Louisa’s Newcastle paintings can be found here in our Newcastle Art section.
