Finished this one today. Been doing charcoal and pencil a lot lately so I thought I would get the paints wet for a change. out of the frame for a few days so I can make any alterations.

Anothe gouache painting, smaller one this time about A4 sized, figured it would fit nicely in a 16" x 12" frame I found in my art cupboard.

At the risk of boring viewers here is another spate..this time an artificial one in the grounds of Dunvegan Castle. Skye. It was a very showery day. The turquoise patch is the fungus which is grey until it is moist/wet.

 Puffins On Fair Isle.
Posted by uncertain - 06-8-10 06:56 - 4 comments
I was interested in Rob's bird attack photo...we were always attacked by what are called bonxies in Scotland ...they did it to protect ground nests.
These are puffins seen on Fair Isle...lovely friendly birds.

 Black Horse
Posted by uncertain - 06-7-10 07:30 - 6 comments
A reference 'photo was used for the landscape...much of it I changed.. hopefully to make a better composition. There were more horses in it and this black one was facing the other way.
