Tuesday 12 August: Visit to Bonnington Square



16 artists braved the heatwave forecast and came along to Bonnington Square on the 12th August.   We were agreeably surprised to find that the climatic conditions were very comfortable in the Square, all the trees creating a very pleasant microclimate, so nobody got too hot.  This gem of a location was new to many participants, and ticks so many boxes for a desirable urban environment, we cannot understand why there are aren't more places like Bonnington Square (please advise if you know of any, Art in the Park will go there!).   We were able to have a very comfortable lunch and sketching gathering around large cafe tables in the shade unbothered by traffic.  

Enjoy our artwork.  You will see that our sketchers concentrated on either the strong rus aspect of the urbe, or the fascinating alfresco cafe scene with people enjoying prolonged coffee sessions.

Art in the Park's next sketching date will be Tuesday 23 September, venue tba.   Tricia Sharpe has kindly volunteered to do some of the blog posting, and has asked if artists when sending in their images could make sure that they put in their full names for ease of attribution as not all email addresses are identifiable.  Many thanks.
