One of my arty loves is sketching and traveling. As a result when on a journey my aim normally is to produce two sketches and a photograph of each place visited. This over the years has resulted in many thousands of sketches from all over the place.

I have made several painting trips to the Scottish highlands and islands. The image above is of the Sound of Mull, looking from the village on Iona, northeast towards Mull. It was drawn with a cheap black biro pen, quite early in the morning in  May, some years ago.
