Other Art - Inspired by photos taken in Asia

This one was based on the large bonsai trees. Background and trunks are watercolour and the foliage is collaged with gelliprint papers.

This was a statue of a tiger. Watercolour and collage.

A street in Vietnam. Acrylic paints, painted in an abstract kind of way and not using the colours I saw. I'm not used to acrylics and I find doing small details hard to do compared with watercolours.
