The Edge of the World – South entrance to Ratho from Dalmahoy Road – Acrylic in a Watercolour Moleskine
This time, last week, this road was almost impassible and only a huge effort kept it open. Today the snow has all but vanished as the temperature has soared to 3C and a thaw is underway. More snow, however, seems likely which is more usual for this time of year – we get most snow in late January through February and into March. This good news means I will be able to choose more locations for this series of winter scenes.

(Español):
Bob, me encanta el talento que tienes para plasmar los paisajes nevados. Sé que no es nada fácil. ¡Me gustaría aprender algún día a hacerlo la mitad de bien que tú!.
—o—
(English):
Bob, I love the talent you have to translate snowy landscapes. I know it is not easy. I would like to learn some day to do half as well!.

Bob – this is a simple test of editing a comment box in an artwork posting. Nick posted something about this in the forum. I’m testing to see if the “EDIT” button is available here (as it is after a forum posting is made).

No button available as far as I can see?

That’s correct — it used to be here, too.

Kei – This is so kind. It was not too cold as there was a distinct lack of wind. Today lots of snow melted as the the temperature rose. Strangely it felt colder.
Nuria – If I can do this so can you. All you need is a desire to paint regularly as well as watching how others do things. YOU CAN DO THIS
John and Nick – I think we seem to be stuck with a lack of editing facilities until Leo comes up with something. Nver mnd. It nott that bd.
