Portugal trip - Part 2

Here is the part two of my Portugal blog. Still in Ferragudo, Mo Teeuw and I saw a lovely painting opportunity in these local men chatting in front of the fishermen's huts. It was very entertaining to hear them in great debate while we were painting.

That's 3 paintings done that day but I was hungry for a quick last one! I did this little painting of the Fort on the beach before the sun went down:

Next day was a rainy one. so we settled for some still life which I greatly enjoyed.

One of my favourite things to paint for still life: fish!

This last one below, I had to rush as the cook wanted to put it in the oven! 'One more minute and I'm done!', I kept saying every 10 minutes!
