Powerscourt Church


One of my resolutions after that rainy day was to pick myself up and go back again! Well, I did, not exactly to the same location as it was still drizzly, but to a nearby church and graveyard. I've often driven by that spot and meant to stop, as it's very atmospheric.

This time, I went with minimum supplies and I only stayed to do the one sketch (using the same Two Rivers sketchpad). And I wrapped up well.

I decided to use the time to experiment with a technique from Liz Steel's Edges, drawing only changes in plane. I added a little watercolour while I was at it. I think it's the first time I've ever drawn a Celtic cross - they are not easy!
