A Glen - A Sketch is a 1850 watercolor by Thomas Faed, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This painting shows a quiet forest scene. A narrow path winds through trees and rocks. The colors are soft—greens, browns, and a bit of blue in the distance. Light filters through the leaves, making some spots brighter. The brushstrokes look loose, almost like quick notes. It feels like the artist just jotted down what they saw fast, not fussing over details. If you like this style, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum for more watercolors like this.
