20. On the Shore of Lake Albert, near the the Town of Meningie
Pastel by Neil Huggett
21 cm (w) x 29.5 cm (h), conté and pastels over black biro, on acid-free coloured-ground ‘Canson’ paper.
This was produced entirely on-site on the shore of Lake Albert, near the town of Meningie. It was done mainly as a colour study, to record a sense of sunlight and colour.
A drawing in black biro was done first, to set up a quick plan for the overlay of colours. I liked this approach to recording some scenes on-site.
