Allotments fascinate me. The bigger and more chaotic they are the better - old sheds full of gardening tools, greenhouses with makeshift shelves, plants and things to squirt the plants with - there's something very primeval about it all.
Our local allotments inspired me to put pencil and paint to paper - in fact, I ended up with no fewer than three different interpretations of it - a sketch, a watercolour and a line and wash - all because I was struck by the temptation to finish my painting off halfway through, by taking an ink pen to it.
This is my original preliminary pencil sketch. Click here to see the finished watercolour painting | Click here to see the line and wash version.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
ORIGINAL PENCIL DRAWING
Almost all watercolour paintings produced by Peter Woolley are developed from pencil
sketches made on-site or in the studio. In the course of that development, further working sketches
are often produced in order to explore the subject and work towards a final, satisfactory
composition. This drawing is a unique document; if it has been used in the process of creating a finished watercolour, it may contain marks of handling or even spots of watercolour. Such marks should not considered flaws; instead, they should be thought of as an integral part of the character of the drawing. To protect
its integrity, the artist has signed and dated it on the reverse.
This original drawing has been produced on 160lb smooth, white paper, with a 2B graphite pencil. For drawing dimensions, please see the main information panel above. The price quoted is for the drawing to be supplied to you unframed, in protective packaging with rigid backing panel, ready to take to a framer. A quote for framed work will be provided on request.
