To Menekse Guven

'Doddington Church' by Anita Davies

Menekse braved the outdoors through strong winds to send me a beautiful plein air, I wasn't as brave.

I did produce a plein air, of sorts, but I took refuge in my nice warm truck to sketch our local village church this morning after dropping Harry at school.

Hope you like it Menekse, I'll be popping it in the post in the morning!

'Dalyan, Lycian Tombs & River' by Meneske Guven

This wonderful scene arrived from Menekse yesterday morning along with the explanation that it started as a plein air painting and, due to high wind, soon became a view from the window.

'So what was going to be a happy Turkish family picnic became one man battling the wind with an ever hopeful stray dog!'

Wind or not, it is a beautiful scene, painted with a wonderful depth.

Thank you Menekse!
