Framed Original Watercolor Painting by Bill Burrough (1983)

This item is an original watercolor painting on paper, dated 1983 and signed by the artist, Bill Burrough. The artwork depicts a lush, tropical courtyard scene, likely in a colonial or Caribbean architectural style, featuring arched windows, palm trees, and a central fountain or planter. The color palette is vibrant, utilizing shades of teal, forest green, ochre, and soft lavender to create a sense of light and shade. The execution style is loose and impressionistic, characterized by fluid brushstrokes and visible pencil underdrawings. The piece is professionally matted with a dual-layered matting (off-white over a thin pink accent border) and housed in a multi-edged, honey-toned wooden frame. The signature 'Bill Burrough’ and the date '© 83' are clearly visible in the lower left corner. Dimensions appear to be approximately 11x14 inches for the sight area. The condition of the artwork itself appears excellent with no visible foxing or fading, though the frame shows some minor surface scuffs and wear along the bottom edge, consistent with age and typical display history. The craftsmanship of the watercolor indicates a skilled hand, particularly in the handling of transparency and the layering of tropical foliage.
