Melk in Bavaria Germany, was one of the wonderful places we visited on our recent travels. The village itself lies beneath the Monastery which is situated high above on a rocky outcrop. Very picture post card stuff. But the best part was the people, they were so friendly.

 At on point Liz was wandering around retail gazing whilst I was doing the above ink/watercolour sketch. Two eight or nine year old girls, with their mum, they were local and joined me to watch me paint and chat. A lovely memorable twenty minuets or so.

Very busy, sorting out the painting, sketches and photos; really enjoying myself. This hot weather is super as outside water-colour work is so possible, with the quick drying times.

Oh well must go to a BBQ, see you all soon.
