The Field - Ballyferriter - the start of the journey

I'm always inspired by a visit to the West of Ireland, County Kerry in particular. I probably took enough photos to feed my painting habit for a lifetime! I'm not the fastest at the moment. The journey is as important to me as the end result. And I know that the more I paint a scene, the tighter I get. The first pass is often fresher and better, less laboured. For instance I'm looking at the watercolour sketch I did down below, and I'm thinking that's it, that's all I need to do! Well, not quite, but what's the bet that the final painting will not be as lively!
