The venue was the new Thornham village hall, on the North Norfolk coast. Forty artists submitted work, all on a &#8216;Coast&#8217; theme and the show really did look good.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;m very pleased to say that two of of my watercolours were sold at the event, both to the same buyer, a matching pair! I&#8217;ve shown one of them before on this blog, a few months ago, but here&#8217;s the chance to see both of them together. For the watercolour artists among you, most of the painting is just the white of the paper (Waterford 140lb rough), with the image simply painted using a large sable hair brush. The paintings are really monochromes, but the colours used are mixed from French Ultramarine Blue, Burnt Sienna, and a tiny touch of Scarlet Lake. Hopefully a good example of &#8216;less is more&#8217;.<figure id=\"attachment_506\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-506\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/learnwatercolour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/misty-days-burnham-overy-staithe-2.jpg?ssl=1\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"506\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/learnwatercolour.com\/blog\/art-events\/two-gone-at-thornham\/attachment\/misty-days-burnham-overy-staithe-2-2\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/learnwatercolour.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/misty-days-burnham-overy-staithe-2.jpg?fit=500%2C360&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"500,360\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"misty-days-burnham-overy-staithe-2\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"&lt;p&gt;Misty Days &amp;#8211; Burnham Overy Staithe 1.
