See View Caravan Park - 2009

The humorous look of camping on a hillside by the sea is the subject of this new painting by Peter Bowen. First entered into the RWA Friends Annual Art Exhibition in Bristol.

I had this crazy idea for a painting showing rows of caravans precariously arranged in rows while the edge of the cliff continues to erode into the sea at an alarmning rate.

I really was under pressure to get this painting completed in time for entering the exhibition. As with all of my paintings it was fun and very enjoyable - I paint for myself creating wacky scenes and situations and enjoy showing my watercolour paintings. Sometimes I never get an opportunity to hang these on my own walls.

This painting is the second I have painted that is twice as large as I would normally paint, I enjoy painting on a full sheet of heavy watercolour paper and did not forget the washing line!

About the Artist

Peter Bowen R.G.D., BA, an accomplished graphic designer and professional watercolour artist.

His unique style of painting architectural subjects with humorous situations has earned him an international reputation during the last 25 years with much of his work in private collections in Canada, the United States and Great Britain.

Ideas for pictures often start as a collection of sketches of things that I have seen. I then create a composition in my mind that I think would work. "Often I start sketching directly on to watercolour paper with a fine pen, letting the lines do the work and form the framework of the picture". Colour elements follow and start to bring life to the painting. Shading and tonal colour adds dimension to the framework of shapes.
