Thanks very much Dennis much appreciated.

Coming on beautifully Malcolm lovely sky and recessive hills.

You were almost there Malcolm, it's 'Buachaille Etive Mòr', it sounds as though you know it personally! Looking good so far Malcolm, I like how you have used the same blues and purples in the mountains as you have in the sky. The scale is set also with the tracks going off either side the base of the mountain.......can't wait to see what you do with the foreground. I see you were right about that body, from your profile photo Malcolm...lol

Looking great .love the purple course used .a great walk up there too 👟😉

Thank you Carole, Fiona and Helen much appreciated, yes Fiona I know the hill very well and most of the others around the Coe but I was always up there in winter for the snow and ice climbing and walking. The 'tracks' are actually the rivers the one on the right still needs to be faded out half way along. Yes Fiona I thought I would change my profile photo to show what I use to be after the comments we made based around your last male figure posting lol. That photo was against Scafell crag which we had gone to climb on. I agree with you Helen it is a cracking hill and in winter it can be very interesting as can the Anoch Egach ridge on the opposite side of Glen Coe. Thank you all for your observations and comments.

I was recently asked to do a painting for someone based on thier favourite photo of the Buchaile ( Fiona will tell me if this is spelt wrong) I climbed and walked it many times but always spell it wrong, should check first really. Anyway this is the work in progress and I suppose I should have posted it elsewhere never mind.

About the Artist
Malcolm Buckley

I have always loved the outdoors and have climbed and walked in various places in the world, after giving numerous slide shows and talks about my trips to raise money for charity, i realised the slides and photos did not do what i saw justice, so I decided to start trying to paint. I am self taught…
