With the lovely fine weather I managed to get out to paint a few days at the beginning of the month.

One of my favourite spots in Skerries is called the Ovens as it is always very sheltered. It is behind Skerries Sailing Club and there is plenty of inspiration for a painting whatever direction you look.

Another nice quiet place to paint is Loughshinny beach.
It was really hot so lots of people in swimming and canoeing.

Skerries Rock beach is a great vantage point to get a full Skerries Harbour view. This painting was painted in the evening just before dusk.

I managed to squeeze a quick sunset sketch in too…
