ii - Ruin - Maen Arthur
The 25 ton capstone of an ancient burial chamber near Reynoldston, north of Cefn Brynis, West Glamorgan (SS490905) is called Arthur’s stone and his ghost is occasionally said to emerge from underneath it – it is explained as a stone that was tossed from Arthur’s shoe

This was entirely experimental, and went in a totally different direction, in part because @mortiscausa had mentioned Wales/the Welsh influence somewhere as an additional layer to the challenge which I gladly accept, and partly because look at the ink bleeding effect on those brushes.
It did not help that I revisited the palette, and saw some of the amazing pieces that had already been posted. And that locked in landscape.
