Lovely painting (again!) of my old stomping ground ..... what hill??? - a gentle incline (at least when we were young!)

Thanks Ann, Ruth and Fiona for taking the time to view and comment on this watercolour it is as always appreciated by myself and Ann the " what hill" !!! seemed like a stiff climb for me after walking from Dollar about 2 miles away, but as you say and I agree that sometimes it seems nothtng when you are younger, (but not now I am afraid for myself !!!!!) :)

It was worth the climbing, Graham. This is stunning, amazing colours on the trees! Perfect sunlight on the Castle!

Castle Campbell originally known as Casle Gloom built in the 15th Century, I was commissioned to paint this old castle some time ago and my memory is mainly of the climb to get up the hill to have this view , will NOT be doing that again in a hurry !!!
