Field gate and wall. pencil sketch En plein air

This will make a beautiful painting Malcolm, but great drawing in it's own right.

Thank you for that Carole, I have photos from that time, may try a painting now you have said that, had not really considered it before.

Fabulous sketch Malcolm, great composition and I love the addition of the birds.

Thank you for that Fiona, I do like to put some birds in my landscapes no matter how small they may be, but on that day there were plenty or gulls around.

Good drawing and practice in lousy conditions but we have to try. Smashing job Malcolm.

Again thanks a lot Derek, I must admit, because of my kind of what you could call obsession with the mountains and outdoors, I have spent to much time getting frozen fingers sketching and painting, but always worth it just to be out there.
