A simple watercolor which looks amazing: The Durham Great Kitchen

This is a great watercolour to learn from. A composition with Greenery framing a central building. The stone texture is really easy to create and super quick. The painting process is in real time and filmed to fit a smart phone screen so you can try as you watch. My paintings only take around 30 minutes to watch. They provide a really good understanding of the simple layering approach I use to make depth. The subject is less important rather the process which you can adapt to your own drawings. The small octagonal building sits behind Durham Cathedral is actually the Great Kitchen. It was built between 1366 and 1374 and is one of the best-preserved medieval kitchens in Europe. The structure is square on the outside but has an octagonal vaulted ceiling inside, with a central louvre for smoke ventilation from the fireplaces around the walls. Originally, it served to feed the monks of Durham Priory, their guests, and pilgrims. Today, the Great Kitchen is part of the Durham Cathedral Museum and houses the treasures of Saint Cuthbert. This building is located behind the Cloister, next to the Refectory Library, and is notable for its distinctive octagonal rib-vaulted ceiling, which is architecturally similar to styles found in southern Spain.
