NEXT VISIT
Sunday 19 October
River Project Pathway, Salisbury
The final outdoor sketching event will be on Sunday, October 19th when we will be sketching along the banks of the River Avon.
Meet at 2 pm outside the far end of Waitrose (the cafe end). Car parking there is free for up to three hours.
We can then proceed via a footpath through the car park hedge to the river bank that stretches onwards to the city. Apart from the river there are some interesting buildings on the opposite bank, or further on towards the town is the new landscaped pathway.

Our Last Outing
Visit to the Breamore Estate
Sunday 14 September
Heavy rain and wind prevented any outdoor sketching on this occasion, and only one sketcher came along to join me.
However, Breamore has a fascinating Countryside Museum where there are a wealth of subjects to sketch. I chose a group of strange objects on display in the Wheelwright’s workshop, whilst Sue turned to the gardener’s corner and drew some of the pots and watering cans. We spent a peaceful time there absorbed in our work whilst the rain continued to lash down.
Later we had a cup of tea and cake in the cosy cafe that was busy despite the weather. We both agreed that it had been a very enjoyable afternoon and worth turning out on a wet Sunday.
