Sketching Isles /|\

"Without grief, without sorrow,
without death,
Without any sickness,
without debility,
That is the sign of Emhain--
Uncommon is an equal marvel.
"A beauty of a wondrous land,
Whose aspects are lovely,
Whose view is a fair country,
Incomparable is its haze.""
(Nutt, 1895)

Reference photo I used for playing with this sketch is from my favorite photographer, Tj. Drysdale (check Their inspiring work). I absolutely love this sea series.
