SKETCHING AT EYEWORTH POND IN SEPTEMBER

 Helen Bartlett organised our September sketching afternoon at Eyeworth Pond on a beautiful afternoon.

We met at Eyeworth Pond, Fritham in the New Forest and were delighted with wonderful view beyond the water lillies to the trees touched with a hint of autumn colour.

The clouds cleared and we were bathed in sunlight, then the clouds converged distilling the light.

We found the rapidly changing light made it difficult to keep the colours fresh as we battled to replicate the view we were seeing.

At the end of our sketching we retreated to The Royal Oak for refreshments and to share our work.

There were beautiful paintings created, well done everyone. - Helen
