Pattern painting inspired by William Hatch Crosby.

This was another of my experiments. I did this by starting with a landscape photograph I had taken and then with water colour paints I painted pattern onto the image in selected areas. I chose to use a range of different patterns as I wanted to see what would look best against the image background.
My attempt at this is different to Crosby's as he has kept to a continuous pattern but as I have a different theme and he does mainly portraits. I think that is why. I found this experiment easy to try and might be something I could use in my future work but with further development.
