Arcade of shops on Calle Doreste, Puerto Rico


Landscape Watercolour of Gran Canaria, 15" x 11"

Calle Doreste in Puerto Rico.  Puerto Rico is a popular resort in SW Gran Canaria, and my subject was this curved arcade of tourist shops just on the side of the harbour there.  It was a good practice of negative painting round the roof tops of the vehicles and the figures.  Sometimes within these white spaces left behind, I later rub out any offending pencil marks, but I think I forgot this one.
