Depicting a boy reading a book in the park, the soft, yet vibrant colours of watercolour accentuates the tranquility and peace of the outdoors. The shadows of the trees and translucent light seeping in adds sweeping beauty. Contrasting the peaceful atmosphere in the foreground, in the background other people play, also enjoying the warm afternoon. Through a variety of brush stroke techniques, I applied a rough texture to the leaves and truck of the trees while applying brilliant and smooth gradients on the shadows. When all the elements are added together, the result is a dreamy and beautiful world.
