One Four Challenge week 3 September

Due to some health issues and other commitments  I’m a bit behind in blogging but for my offering to Robyn Gosby’s One Four Challenge ( Last one included a history lesson!)

castle dawn
once upon an olden morning

Inspiration is a bit of a struggle this week so – Thankfully Dunvegan Castle is a vision itself and here is another painterly edition on a texture,  with a slight misty morning  touch.

    1. oh thanks so much Laura welcome prayers always. – Well, after the virus I had to have dental surgery and I never thought I would look like one of those old cartoons of the huge round cheek wrapped up in a sling.- and so uncomfortable!! Just had the stitches out so hopefully on the mend!!
