I built up layers of Prussian Blue over all the painting until the overall impression was dark enough to contrast dramatically with the light and reflection of the passing paddle boat (the Savoie). There is also a star reflected in the middle of the composition. The atmospheric style in the blue areas of the picture is intended to evoke the work of JMW Turner, who also painted lakes in Switzerland. Painted in watercolor on Arches watercolour paper (which has a textured surface finish). Sold without mat/mount or frame. Painted to the edge of the paper.
