It took me a while to find the spot I wanted. There were too many tourists at the front, big groups blocking the footpaths and the views. A few dodgy characters at the back - the city council really needs to develop that space - it would make a lovely park for all to enjoy. So I went to the little park across the road. I couldn't see Christchurch Cathedral, but I had a good view of the building that hosts Dublinia (the Viking experience - can't believe that in all the years I've been in Dublin, I've never been).
I was nearly finished with my drawing and painting, adding a bit of pencil here, some marker there. And then the sun came out. And the shadows. We had shadows!! On the 9th of March! After 2 months of solid rain. It was so exciting. I got a bit carried away!
Then I went to have a look at the back of the Radisson Blu hotel. There's a new Convention Centre there. It would be a great location, tucked right at the back of Dublin Castle.
