Sketching in Sligo, Ireland today. First in the town centred then this afternoon at Strandhill to capture the evening colours. And a few interested onlookers as well. #Sketch #sketchbook #painting #Strandhill #sligo #Ireland #IrishCoastGuard

Always check your sketch kit for water before you go out! Calm sea at Strandhill this evening despite very blustery off shore wind. Started a quick sketch only to discover there was no water in my brushes and none in my bag! Added a bit of colour back at home. #sketching #strandhill #sligo #Ireland

A moment of tranquility this afternoon at Strandhill Beach, the pleasure of sitting down and just painting!

A snapshot of my week - Studio Painting and Plein Air in Sligo, Ireland. #Painting #PleinAirPainting #IrishPainting #Strandhill #Sligo #Ireland

Enjoying a bit of spring sunshine, warmth and #sketching at #Strandhill, #Sligo. Very very peaceful! #Sketchbook #Ireland #SligoArt #SligoArtist #WildAtlanticWay

The Peace and Quite of Plein Air painting! Lovely afternoon for a walk and a quick sketch by the waters edge here in Strandhill … just don’t pick a spot at the end of the runway!! #Sketching #Strandhill #Sligo

It was meant to be a Plein Air Painting Day today but it was just too breezy, so it turned into a long walk and a short sketch in a sheltered spot in the sand dunes!

When you’re half way through painting a sky and you look out the window and think …. maybe I might change it to a sunset!

A great afternoon sketching around Strandhill, Sligo today. Lovely weather to round out winter and prepare for the start of Spring!

Todays walk and Sketch at ‘Shelly Valley’, Strandhill. An incredibly peaceful spot, totally sheltered from the wind today with its towering sand dunes (or at least what is left after Storm Éowyn).

A walk and a Sketch, hoped to do some sketching between showers this afternoon but there was no real in-between! Coloured added back home afterwards. #sketching #painting #Strandhill #Sligo #Ireland

A very quick Studio Tour! Getting the studio back together after a good clean up, repaint and taking the opportunity to rearrange it. Also work in progress, capturing a moment from the beach here in Strandhill, Sligo from earlier in the month #Painting #Landscapepainting #Strandhill #Sligo #Ireland

Just testing with my first post here on blue sky…a lovely walk across Killaspogbrone, #Strandhill #Sligo
