Morning light under Twickenham Bridge by John Dobbs
PRICE: £80
Richmond Lock and Footbridge, London
Originally built in the 1800’s this beautiful lock and footbridge is buzzing with river life. Working from direct observation we will aim to capture this energy in paint.
The morning session will used to make compositional drawings and small sketches in your preferred medium, and then these can be used to inform paintings which can be completed in the afternoon.
