The falls at Linton, in Wharfdale, make an excellent primary target for a days hike from Burnsall (further down the dale) a natural turning point in the walk, and a good subject for sketching and painting. But there\u2019s more to Linton than just the falls; on the eastern side of the river, immediately after crossing the old footbridge, I came across this barn. And with the sunlight and surrounding trees casting such interesting shadows across the scene, I knew instantly that I had found another great subject \u2013 one just begging to be painted as a Line and Wash.<\/p>\n
If pushed, I think I would have to say that line and wash is perhaps one of my all-time favourite painting disciplines. The combination of relatively precise ink drawing and loose watercolour washes makes it perfect as an outdoor sketching technique, but I also find it enjoyable in the more controlled environment of the studio too.<\/p>\n
