Ha, ha, I just read the comment from Michael. Yes, I should have been out there battling the misty and weather! We took the easy way!

Thank you. I love painting, and being in misty days. They have a hint of mystery about them. I am intending to do some larger studio paintings from some of my oil sketches.

Great sense of atmosphere here, Elaine, but just imagine what fun it would have been painting outdoors with the wind and rain in your face and a nice oil/water emulsion emerging on your canvas!

Lovely sketch, Elaine. You've gone straight to the heart of the atmosphere and the delightful geometry of the steep Cornish cottages.

Thank you. It was a very misty day. We had a wonderful big window which we could sit at, inside, nice and warm, and paint the outdoors. Cornwall was a wonderful experience for me.

Hi Eaine,
I love the perspective in this one. The viewer gets a great sense of the place...
