Editing Eric Ravilious (section)

==Watercolour==
Apart from a brief experimentation with oils in 1930 – inspired by the works of [[Johan Zoffany]] – Ravilious painted almost entirely in watercolour.<ref name=con21>Constable, 1982, p. 21.</ref> He was especially inspired by the landscape of the [[South Downs]] around [[Beddingham]]. He frequently returned to Furlongs, the cottage of [[Peggy Angus]]. He said that his time there "altered my whole outlook and way of painting, I think because the colour of the landscape was so lovely and the design so beautifully obvious ... that I simply had to abandon my tinted drawings".<ref name="escc">{{cite journal |date=August 2007 |title=East Sussex Record Office: Report of the County Archivist, April 2006 to March 2007 |url=http://www.eastsussex.gov.uk/NR/rdonlyres/26E61163-720B-41F4-AB51-AB8DE4A6DA8C/0/ESROAnnualReport200607forweb.pdf |url-status=dead |journal=East Sussex Record Office: Report of the County Archivist |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110527131700/http://www.eastsussex.gov.uk/NR/rdonlyres/26E61163-720B-41F4-AB51-AB8DE4A6DA8C/0/ESROAnnualReport200607forweb.pdf |archive-date=27 May 2011 |access-date=19 January 2009 }}</ref> Some of his works, such as ''Tea at Furlongs'', were painted there.
