Summer Coal Fire

Landscape of the Day : Summer Coal Fire : What a "Summer" we are having in the UK this year...
so cold..and wet…..why do we live here?...landscape painting is a challenge any time but this Summer you take your life in your hands even stepping out of the door....and the stuff you have to take with you...wellington boots..blankets...gloves..woolly hats...scarves...and a hip flask or two and your painting stuff....!!!...this painting was painted wearing gloves...once I saw the smoke from a coal fire coming from this Summer cottage I knew it was time to go home and make a nice cup of hot tea...and refill the hip flasks for the next outing....ho..hum...
