Untitled (Helford River) 1982
Gouache; 52 x 34 cms
Provenance: The Artist's Estate
Painting in either watercolour, gouache or oil paint heavily thinned with turpentine, Cross lays delicate washes of a fairly limited range of colours upon each other, the shimmer of paper through the brushstrokes suggests the sparkling light on the ever-changing surface of the Helford river'.
