What a glorious day for a walk in the woods for our merry band of 7 artists, Lesley joined us later on in the day and Sandra and Frances left a bit earlier There were some stunning photos taken of the gnarled trees and inside the walled gardens where you could order marvellous cakes and tea served by some very willing helpers. Sandra was by a little pond and made a super charcoal sketch of it showing the reflection in the water and foliage and trees Sally T produced three sketches, one in pencil which showed distance and two tree ones the first in pencil and the next in ink Sally L also showed distance in her colourful paintings you can really be lost inside them Lesley came later today so only had a limited time on her painting but managed to capture the feel of the building. the tree ink drawing of a Cedar tree was done yesterday at Christchurch Park. Sally P was busy drawing three stunning views tackling buildings, haystacks and trees I quickly sketched some trees and berries, one has a stylised feel Frances sent these from this morning, the first scribble while enjoying scone and apple juice in the Walled Garden. Second a view in the Walled Garden which she took more time over. Diana sent these, the first showing Thornham in 2015 and two colourful quick scribbles done today with Thornham in mind. Harriet sent two sketches done this week in Wales as she had been lucky with the weather. Carolyn has been adding colour to her BandW drawing this week and is not sure she likes it, but is experimenting. the second drawing is a Sedum from her garden and I think she has captured the complexity of it. Sally L sent me her pictures from Dunwich last Thursday Another lot of lovely entrants this week, Sally L is the blogster next week.
