Despite a day of disruption and noise due to the builders finally moving in to the plot next door yesterday with their diggers and heavy plant, I did manage to get a couple hours painting time in the late afternoon and complete this little watercolour.
I think it is a place called Emsbury Cove - I got the reference photo from Midge at Soggibottom blog and I am sure she will correct me if I have the name wrong!* I like the sense of looking down into the water and the light on the ripples. It's a simple painting but it has broken my 'block' and hopefully I can paint more during the summer holidays...if the noise does not drive me over the edge!
The knitted aeroplane is going surprisingly well - I had to do the shaping while it was on the needles so complete guesswork. When I sewed it over the foam base structure last night, it fit almost perfectly - wow! Either the knitting gods are smiling down on me or I am quite good at my job these days!
*Elberry Cove - see, I knew Midge would put me straight!
