OOF
33 degrees C today in Cornwall, and that is WAY too hot. We are not accustomed!
I refused to walk Rosie this morning, because it was already baking when I woke up. I'll take her for a late evening walk instead. By a stream, probably.
Did try doing a bit of outdoor painting on walk on Sunday, but had to give up because Rosie got bored and also there was a horsefly. I do hate horseflies!
Tried to finish it off later, but I didn't have a camera with me and so had to work from memory: I don't think I got the light quite right. Still, it's all practice.
Here are some of Pp's miniatures, photographed when it was not so damn hot:
Fingolfin & Morgoth. I feel the slight blurring adds to the feeling of motion : Pp, however, would like every detail of his paintwork picked out more finely.
Galadriel, Celeborn & Amdir in Lorien.
