Inspired by King's work

One of the things I particularly liked about Anna King's technique was how she painted areas of colour and then used a pencil to draw the lines and shapes into the paint.

I experimented with this idea by using acrylic (instead of oils) and a charcoal pencil (instead of a normal pencil).


First, I tried this in different greys...

Then, I tried different purples...

I think the paler purple at the bottom gives the idea of mist on the fields.
