Rievaulx Abbey

7x9.5 watercolor over ink line sketch in Ecosystem sketchbook done yesterday for a WetCanvas watercolor challenge online. The impressive ruins of one of England's most influential Cistercian monasteries, Rievaulx Abbey sits in a tranquil valley on the North York Moors. I have visited only the Tintern Abbey in Wales and painted it a couple of times. I used a STA 0.3 pen and White Night paints. COPYRIGHT 2022 Kay Smith
