We were supposed to sketch the library in Dalkey, but I wasn't going to drive so close to the sea and not spend some time at Coliemore Harbour, with Dalkey island across the way. It was dull at home, and dull in Dalkey, but a 5-minute walk to Coliemore Harbour, and it was a different world, bright, sunny, choppy seas, swimmers in the harbour, birds flying over the rocks in the distance, palm trees, golden light on the stone wall. I felt so full of joy!
Then I went back to the town to catch up with the others, but I sketched the other side of the street. I just do my own thing.
