Ermitage Arlesheim



The Ermitage in Arlesheim, Switzerland, makes for an easy ramble. Although the area looks perfectly natural, it apparently is a landscaped park in the English style created in 1785. You can find out more about it on this site (in German).

I liked the way the buildings nestled in the landscape, with the red roofs contrasting against the greens. For the mountain on the left, I painted lots of washes wet in wet and mostly wet on dry for the rest of the painting.
