Before exploring the winter sea cliffs of Saltburn, the temptation of warm pubs and pales ales wave like buddleia to a butterfly.

Now that is what I wanted to see in UK and our tour of Scotland…we did see lots of battle fields and a couple of castles..
..not the image stuff
Thank you so much for sharing.
I’m sketching Zip tonight!
Wow I am loving this reply…
Did you find the ZIP’s first birthday site?
He is busy the peaking out the window pose as the sunshine has liberated all the squirrels today
Great ! but where’s the Swaledale rowing a dinghy ?
hope the pub was cosy
cheers Danny
Love it Danny
you trying to tell me something?
Keith, amazing! You make this sort of architectural painting/sketching look effortless! I always make a hash of it and pull my hair out
I pulled my hair out too
Thank you for your kind words.
Very nice sketch. Maybe one day I will visit the Saltburn pub. I would love that.
Let me know when you visit so you can buy me a pint!
I’ll buy you two!
I wouldn’t mind a nice warm pub right now! One with a a log fire & real ale. In fact this one looks pretty tempting!
It was full of people drinking beer Sonya, you would have hated it!
Lovely – and nice to see another painting from you.
Thank you Val.
Do you ever paint and drawing anything less than perfect?…Excellent work, my friend!
Thanks Deb, I wish I resembled your kind comments.
Is this watercolour over pencil? Without pen? It works either way. Lovely glowing creams. As for the pub part, count me in.
A little of both Barry, I drew it first and then drew a little more following the watercolour. That’s two of us for a pint then.
Raining here…very gloomy. A nice warm corner in a pub sounds fantastic! Lovely work.
Thank you Linda. I’m much stronger to the forces of temptation than I once was. Gloomy here too.
Are these a row of pubs, Keith? The way you set them on the page, I want to stroll over and check them out!
Those last few buildings are out of focus, the page didn’t fit in the scanner. It’s the end of a row of buildings that meet the cliffs. Only one pub (thank the lord)
Hi. My eye goes right to the wheel on the end of the building. I also like the way the chimney pots are so deftly rendered! jane
Thank you Jane, strange how one small area can help a sketch. These things always happen by chance with me.
Found you by way of Patricia’s blog — I applaud your artwork!
Thank you Laurie, much appreciated. Please keep visiting if you have the time.
