I spent a great week recently in Cornwall. Some fantastic fishing villages not to mention the pasties and clotted cream! This one was painted on site plein air on quarter imperial size saunders watercolour paper.

'Eilean Donan Castle'- Scotland

This is a very famous and much painted castle in Scotland. I aimed to capture the mysterious atmosphere of the place in watercolour. I painted this on site on an easel as I looked at the castle a few hundred yards away.

'Beach Strolling'

Painted this one on a local North east Beach a few days ago outdoors on site. Watercolour 16" x 12" All of this 'summer rain' that we've been having lately actually held off fortunately.

'Pirates Cove' South Shields NE UK

Heres my latest watercolour painted from a sketch that I made last month on one of our local beaches. Quarter Imperial size with Winsor and Newton paints. It was a cold day but bright and fresh. I didn't see any pirates!
