Twelve of us turned up at the newly redeveloped and revamped Canada Water south of the river in the Rotherhithe loop, right beside the Canada Water tube station, very convenient when we had extracted ourselves from the state of the art tube and overground station. It was quite a windy day, always exciting when trying to paint, but not hot! Most of us got involved with the colour to be found on one side of the Canada Water dock, but not everyone. There were City views to be found from the upper floors of the extraordinarily-shaped public Library. We were all charmed by the water and reedbeds around the red walkway, where we saw coots, moorhens, assorted ducks, and even a heron. This is a lovely place for local residents to go and chill out in nature. We were also impressed with the glorious planting to one side of the dock and the reedbeds, which used a yellow/orange/red palette, featuring yellow red-hot pokers.
Enjoy our images.
The next sketching day will be Tuesday 8 July, details to follow.
