It was a little miracle.It had been raining and grey for much of the week. I was at the beach and hills nearby scouting around for birds to take photographs of when all of a sudden it becomes a beautiful warm and glorious day.
I ran for about ten minutes in a fit of muscle-tearing craziness to grab my paints from the van and splurged that one out perched on a rock in the middle of a river. Unfortunately, the rest of my paintings show lots of grey sky and storms. One of my watercolours ran out when it started raining as I was painting and a canvas that I had spent hours preparing blew out of my hands and 500 metres of the edge of a cliff and into the sea..
Also, the Isle of Skye is awful for midges. They're fucking everywhere in the evenings and in clouds so thick that you can't breathe.
