do something pretty

mist

just got back from cornwall. the weather was mostly overcast and very misty, and whilst i suppose i missed the sparkling sea and the blue skies of previous holidays, there was something deliciously mysterious about the mist, the grey choppy seas and the black rocks. and anyway, to make up for it, we did get a couple of really nice balmy soft sunny late afternoon walks across the fine white sand and green seas.  
tried a couple of times (mostly unsuccessfully) to draw the cliffs and the headlands. drawing the cat was more successful. also collected a lot of very small shells, and lovely pieces of coloured glass and pottery from the beach. i'd like to make a necklace out of them but i'm not sure how as they don't have any holes to thread through. but the colours altogether are too wonderful. greens and blues and yellows and pinks - summer colours.
