In the studio agian, and I thought I would try to re-do this picture of the view looking west along the front at Lochcarron.

I needed to re-do it as I was not happy about the technical quality of the picture - i.e. it looked a bit scrappy. So I started with charcoal.

The hills look a bit like Beinn Alligin at this stage - not at all appropriate. So I continued with rubbings out, oilbar and more charcoal.

At this stage, I added ink and white acrylic. I needed to darken down the middle hill and add some shoreline marks, as well as more work on the sea and the sky. It ended up like this.

I stopped at this stage to take stock. Is it better than the original or not? I think so, but it still looks a bit messy. I'm continuing to work on it.
