In the late summer and early autumn Michael Worthington and I snatched some days out from our busy schedules. I think I was on my own for this one in the Oxford Botanic Garden.
Michael wanted to try it so we started before it opened one morning, at the edge of Christchurch meadow.

| Magdalen Tower from the meadows 12x8 |
We then moved into the garden and had two goes at this scene before hunger
forced us to seek sustenance and broke the spell..

| Botanic Garden Archway 1 12x8 |
 |
| Botanic Garden Archway 2 12x8 |
We also went further afield - to Wooton-by-Woodstock and Stonesfield.
 |
| Above Fawler 8x12 |
 |
| Ford and Bridge Stonesfield 12x9 |
Then there was the Abingdon day - a lot of walking and not much painting but at least the weather was good.
 |
| The Old Anchor, Abingdon 9x12 |
 |
| Boy Fishing, Abingdon 12x8 |
On all these occasions we felt rusty and could have done with 3 or 4 consecutive days to start painting well again but it was not to be. Maybe the Winter will be more productive and successful.
