I braved the cold and sketched...

....what some of us do for our art.
Well, I had to make the most of the opportunity, we were visiting


Sometimes you have to make the most of these things, and at least the sun was shining.
In fact it was so cold there were even remnants of a frost in the shaded parts of this huge estate!
hence I only sketched this one view.



Yes, there were gardeners working, and loads of visitors all over the place, even if the sketch doesn't show them.

You're very brave to be outside painting, it was minus 1 degree here one day last week, so very well done!
