CLIFTON GORGE
Above Wayne Attwood, Tom Hughes and Valerie Pirlot at work. It was a stunning view working against the light.
Several of us met 'under the PAS Umbrella', in Bristol for the day on Saturday 29th Sept. (Thanks for reminding me Valerie)
I'd been very busy but decided to make the day out. It was a bright sunny day and perfect for the occasion. I arrived about noon, a little late, just as people were putting finishing touches on their paintings of the Supension Bridge.
I did a rushed piece of the bridge view, but that needs a little more attention before I decide to post it. Sometimes rushed pieces are great, but this one perhaps not. In the afternoon we worked facing the North view.
It was a great day, good company and cameraderie, exchanging valuable painting and equipment tips .......
i.e. Valerie's versatile adjustable painting transporter, and Tom's credit card paint scraper - ingenious. We ended up in a nearby pub in Clifton Village (having missed the last coffee shop) to discuss the day and agreed we should it again before too long.
Will try to add more photos later ....................
It was a lovely day and you did a great painting of the gorge. Hope to do it soon! take care. Valérie
ReplyDeleteThx. I thought all out paintings of that view worked well. Yes we should plan another day before the leaves drop - especially if we know the sun will be out
