Rohan Pond progress

 

Using greys, light to dark, to try to give an impression of depth.

I've built up banks using a mix of Dark Earth and Brown Earth.

Rather too much of the latter, I'm afraid.

Here I've used layers of various varnish, trying to get a water look to it.

Ducks are not going to fall for it are they?

One layer had some green wash in it to blur the edges of my grey paint

and to provide a murky depth to it.
