Lockdown seems so far away now…..where we live we were so lucky, beautiful surroundings and no people. Nice painting Roger ( I don’t mind the word “ nice” although some think it’s a platitude - it’s not. ). I like the title too - the castle isn’t always the main feature!

I've got my back to the castle, Marjorie. I sat by the wall of that little stumpy lighthouse. The path leads towards Budle Bay and that's Holy Island Castle in the distance.

14" x 18" oil on canvas I've had an afternoon of putting things right. These flowers were floating in mid-air and needed some foliage. The whole painting needed more tonal contrast. Lightening the sea helped with that and made it a much nicer day altogether. That fits with the actual day in July 2020 when I painted the plein air pastel. We were allowed out for a spell between lockdowns. After countless walks around the park, you can imagine my joy when I had a sunny day at Bamburgh.
