WASHBROOK FARM, Doddington, Cambridgeshire. UK

View from Washbrook Farm - Summer journal 2007

A lazy Sunday afternoon spent savouring the delights of a friend's nearby farm gave me the chance to sketch the landscape across the Fen while the opposite sex indulged in a little fly fishing on the lake.

I was at Washbrook Farm back in June for their annual country show where I sketched members of the 13th Alabama Infantry

DODDINGTON COUNTRY SHOW 2007

Last year the 13th Alabama Infantry elected me as their 'resident' artist and today I went over to the country show at Washbrook Farm, Doddington to spend a couple of hours with them...sketch book in hand!



The infantry went about their day as I set up my chair among them and captured a few sketches in my A5 Winsor & Newton, working directly with ink. A fantastically challenging and productive afternoon and an opportunity I am most grateful for.
