St.Fagans, Glamorganshire is a 1940 watercolor by H. E. Du Plessis, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This sketch shows a quiet countryside scene with a small house and trees. The colors are soft—greens, yellows, and light blues—painted quickly in loose strokes. A winding path leads toward the house, and the sky is pale with faint clouds. The artist scribbled notes all over the paper, almost like a diary of what they saw. It looks like they were working fast, maybe outside, capturing the moment. If you like this sketchy style, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum for more works like it.
