The Cloud
TRESS, David
David Tress moved to Pembrokeshire in 1976. His depictions of landscapes have evolved over time as he has refined his techniques. The papers have been layered, scored, torn and then assembled, before being washed with watercolour, ink and oil pastel. These varied techniques express elements of the landscape, such as weather, erosion and light.
