To take a break from the intensely detailed work I've been creating lately, I decided to spend some time practicing my basic watercolour techniques. So each day this week I've produced a small traditional watercolour painting, using a fairly loose style and with lovely diffused washes. Each of these took about 2 hours.

Its history is entwined with the military, which used it to develop the first parachute and conduct many other military experiments. Yet, this activity...
