Trekking in the Peneda-Geres National Park, Portugal

[Guest post by Lynda Gray in Portugal] We trekked for six days from village to village on old paved tracks and footpaths from Soajo to Santa Maria do Bouro in this beautiful national park in the very far north of Portugal.  It is a quiet place of lush green valleys, terraced hillsides and golden long-horned cattle.

I usually work in concertina books when I’m travelling. This time I tried something new and took two Fabriano blocks with me, working alternately between them. We arrived in each village in the late afternoon and that’s when I sat quietly sketching, feeling pleasantly exercised and blessed to be doing what I was doing.

Some images I left just as drawings. Mostly I added watercolour in the evening – for me it always seems easier to do away from the subject, easier to try and be looser. 

I loved the clusters of traditional buildings and the red rooves but most of all I loved drawing the granite espigueiros, the distinctive maize stores, functional but so very spiritual, that are such a part of this beautiful park.

Now I’m home with a little pile of 5 x 7 inch sketches. Next time it’s back to a concertina.
