Outdoor Sketching at Dunbar and finished painting

 

Sketch from over the drawbridge on my stool with my back to the rock outcrop using a black pen on a 20x16 inch canvas board. Inset shows the view. It was getting cold so I returned to the cottage.

Some coloured tissue added to the buildings and dressmaking patterns to the harbour area.

Returned later in the day to photograph the returning fishing boats. Our cottage was just to the left of the orange buoy up the steps.

The finished painting by adding the boats, lobster pots and just indicate some detail along the quayside.
