What a lovely sunny saturday afternoon it was...

So with it being very still and hardly any wind I drove down the Ayrshire coast to just outside the village of Dunure...

I'd taken some painting gear along and had a couple of relaxing hours sitting plein air style painting the underpainting of the vista across the Firth Of Clyde To the Isle Of Arran...

Updates to follow enjoy your weekend...
