I am just back from my holiday in Madeira. I painted this watercolour sitting by the sea looking up at this sugar pink building perched on a cliff and surrouded by palms and exotic plants.
This elegant and luxurious hotel was one of the first built on the island. I have been there for afternoon tea. I sat on the balcony under the arches with the terra cotta roof.
People go there to celebrate special birthdays and anniversaries. Winston Churchill used to stay there.

Tessa, what a wonderful watercolour! Very beautiful and what a great memory of your holiday! I hope to see more watercolours from your holiday!
Gorgeous watercolour Tessa. I hope you relaxed on your holiday, and soaked up some warm sunshine.
Really nice. Next time on the island will be a real pleasure to meet you and should you wish to paint in our gardens, we would be more than pleased.
With best regards.
