Visit to St.Thomas’s Church, Salisbury on Sunday February 15th

With heavy rain battering down outside, it was good to be in the welcoming church and to open our sketch books once again.

As we sketched we were entertained by two ladies practising a somewhat discordant modern piece of music on the piano. It was rather similar to trying to discern the meaning of a piece of abstract painting!

Absorbed in our work, the afternoon passed quickly and good sketches were produced from our surroundings.
