Today’s outing with Broadstone Art Society took us to the Blue Poole near Wareham, Dorset. Once used to extract clay for Poole pottery it is now a delightful lake surrounded by pine woods, perfect for a visit on a really hot day. Having finished a mediocre watercolour I sketched our president Dennis and his daughter as he painted the pool in oils. Dennis is in his 90’s and still joins us to. Paint outside whenever he can, he is always cheerful and very inspirational. A very nice chap!
