Last week I published my first sketch video, this week the sketch and 150 limited prints are available to buy.
From the Barron Suite on The Scotsman Hotel’s seventh floor I had a superb view of Edinburgh’s Christmas festivities on Princes Street, from the Big Wheel on the left to the new for 2013 Star Flyer on the right, and standing central the Scott Monument.
Shrieks of laughter and screams of joy could be heard floating over the Waverley Station, as darkness fell and the hundreds of lights from various rides and attractions shone bright.

My ink sketch with watercolour wash shows Edinburgh’s Christmas festivities well under way, from the big wheel on the left to the Star Flyer high above the shops on the right.
Thanks to The Scotsman Hotel for allowing access to the impressive Barron Suite on their seventh floor. From my amazing view point I could see right along Princes Street as the crisp winters day turned into night and the Christmas lights changed the scene entirely.

This is the closest I have so far been to the new for Christmas 2013 ‘Star Flyer’ ride currently spinning thrill seekers high above the Edinburgh skyline in St Andrews Square.
Standing beneath the almost 60 metre high tower I imagine the view of the city must be truly unique. One I have yet to witness, but there is still time as the attraction will be up until the 5th January.
Have you been brave enough and if so what did you think, worth the £7.50 ticket?
