Really enjoyed Oliver's Inspiration Challenge Youtube post so I thought I would join this amazing forum . I started landscape watercolour a couple of months ago and I am really inspired by any landscape I am in. This is a painting I did today after a walk in the hills near me early this morning. The Berkshire Downs sit above the Thames Valley. They are mainly arable fields with some chalk downland and a mixture of oak and beech woodland. The bird life is always amazing with red kites, linnets, lapwings, meadow pipits. And at this time of year fieldfares and redwings.

The photo I took this morning with mist in the background. The trees are young English oak (Quercus robur)
