Drowning boat


I know this is supposed to feature my daily paintings of Sussex, but I came across a photo I took last year that I had planned to use as the basis for a painting.
Last August I spent a very pleasant weekend in County Sligo at a friends' birthday party. It was in a beautiful country house hotel about 5 miles from Sligo and I took a number of photos over the weekend (as you do) This is based on a partly sunken rowing boat near the boat house. Earlier in the weekend I had a 'seaweed bath' that I wasn't really looking forward to, but like a lot of things in life, once I tried it I LOVED IT! Try it if you ever get a chance.
