Spring is on its way - spotted my first Celandine yesterday and there was sun at last today after all the grey, and warmth out of the breeze. Best of all there are ever increasing hours of daylight! In this post there are more pics of Mallorca from October 2011 featuring Port Andratx and Sant Elm. And I have included another 'rejuvenated' painting - let me know what you think. First, a startling photo of Mallorca which appeared in the 5 Feb edition of the Mail on Sunday, with ice and snow and temps of -4C conditions were far colder than in St Ives this winter! Anyway, back to the sunshine - this is Port Andratx on the South West coast of Mallorca. The marina and surrounding hills. A fisherman cleans his catch. Soaking up the sun. It was baking hot and I for one was desperate to get into the water. Once immersed it was wonderful to float and throw a few lazy strokes to swim in such beautiful surroundings...
