Inshriach Alpine Nursery, Aviemore. Carolyn Lamb. Aug 2016. Oil . I was able to get 2 days peaceful painting in, although as usual there was not much of that blue sky stuff around.
Revisiting last years holiday cottage at Inshriach Alpine Nursery in the Cairngorms, but 2 months later in the hope of better weather. It was warmer but not drier. I had hoped to paint the pond again and also the pond at Inshriach Farm but I'm not quite sure where the week went. I did more smaller things last year but as painting larger pictures just takes me longer, I only did 1 oil this time over 2 days. More delicious cake was eaten in the Potting Shed tearoom.
 Most of this was painted outside but thanks to the green houses there was somewhere to duck inside when it showered.  Until the peanut feeder ran out I sketched red squirrels , woodpeckers and a pheasant. |  Inshriach pond. I sat with my brolly suspended on the tree branches above for shelter for this quick watercolour, but there is only so much time you can spend holding up a brolly .  And on the way home briefly visited my mum. |
