(I seem to be stuck in Scilly. Help.)

Tresco Abbey Gardens, Tresco, Isles of Scilly, UK

Moss-covered, stone steps go up to stone pillars, which mark the start of a path. At the end of a path is a stone arch set in a ruined wall. On either side of the steps and path are the leaves of palm trees. A low wall edges the path, with bushes of small-leafed plants growing over them. Some tiny pink flowers re visible amongst the leaves.

Beyond the arch is stone wall with many leafy plants growing over it. At the top, visible above the arch, are some large grey and silver bushes, and a tree with narrow grey branches and bunches of spiky/palm-like branches on each end.

It's a sunny day. The sky is light blue with wispy clouds. The trees cast shadows over the edges of the stops and paths.

I've started #painting the big blue wobbly bits on my #handpainted map of the #IslesOfScilly.

I do it as a series of small very wet washes so I can constantly keep an eye on that tricky leading edge.

Watching paint dry is one of my favourite things in the whole world!

Illustrating the island of St Mary's, the largest of the #islesofscilly is taking me as long as I thought it would - there are so many fascinating things to consider.

My profound interest in tea and cakes, birds, horses,#neolithic burial chambers and flowers, appears to be hanging out quite markedly!

And there are more flowers to come. Daffodil field next!
