Hello & welcome along on this walk! If you're new here - my name is Sarah and each week I head out on a walk with my faithful companion Jack Spaniels, to explore somewhere in this beautiful country of Scotland and hopefully find something to paint back in my studio at home.
Today we are following some more of the Fife Coastal Path - the long distance walking route that covers all of the coastline of the Kingdom of Fife, where we live.
Starting in sleepy Cellardyke, we walk along the coast to Crail - one of the best preserved historic fishing villages in Scotland. On the way we find beautiful wild-flowers, dramatic sea-worn caves, brightly coloured butterflies and some atmospheric ruined houses.
I couldn't resist the beautiful fritillary butterfly that I found on this walk, with black markings just like leopard print on a vibrant orange background. Watch as I paint this butterfly, from start to finish, at the end of the video.
If you enjoyed this video and you haven't already, please check out my other videos - including the three special Skye episodes, where we explore some incredible Scottish scenery. Join me again next week as we explore somewhere else in Scotland and look for painting inspiration...
