Painting pilchards in Cornwall

Fairmaids of Mousehole

Weather is a bit miserable at the moment down here in the south west of Cornwall! I got a small plein air piece painted yesterday in between showers but I wasn't very pleased with it. After lunch I had a drive around hoping to find a spot out of the wind and rain, but ended up buying these pilchards and painting a still life.

  2. Well I love your pilchards Haidee - you can't always come right with plein air, nine times out of ten you always do tho.
    Well done - hopefully soon we'll be displaying such things!!!
