could be the name of a folk musician
but in fact a request for advice- I'm on Smew #2 and it's all going a bit wrong, so I thought I might stop and seek out a bit of learning (which for me often means looking for someone to imitate..)
anyone happen to have any favourite examples of painters rendering a rippley lake surface?
inevitably I'm looking at the rough and bristly end of the spectrum (wonderful reflecting watersurfaces by Peter Mathios, Chris Rose are out there of course, but that's way too smoooooth for me to aspire to)
plenty of mighty seascape learning and examples out there too, but that tends to be much bigger rolling water surfaces
not rippley lakewater
I am quite taken with some of the choppier surfaces in Martin Ridley's work (see here Goldeneye and Smew)

any bright ideas would be much appreciated, although results cannot be guaranteed
