This is gorgeous, Lesley, evocative of the spirit of Bedruthan...indeed of Cornwall itself! love the way you've drawn the crevices in those cliffs. Really well done!

Excellent cliffs Lesley and you’ve done a terrific job of the sky......which is just as you described in your write up.

Thankyou Thalia Carole and Fiona, I wasn't sure about this as I used velour paper, it has worked really well to give the effect I was after.. I will be using it again it's so nice to work with.

I wasn't going to attempt those steps..maybe if I was younger.lol....i decided to sketch the view in pastels,, much more relaxing...a bit of a grey day blue sky just peeping through.. a very cool breeze.. i have completed this at home...10x14" grey velour paper with soft pastels.
