Plein air painting 110

Facing Southampton Water is this dominant structure, known as the Royal Victoria Hospital Chapel. It was originally the central part of a much larger military hospital, over a 1/4 of mile long and in use for 100 years or so. It was demolished in 1966, bar this section. The area is now known as the Royal Victoria Park, and is very near to the village of Netley (Hampshire).
The painting shown here was done on the 13 July 2023 on a very windy day, coming directly off Southampton Water at full force! Its painted in oils on mounting board, sized at 12" x 9.5". 

Plein air painting 93

Southampton 'old' cemetery contains a number of buildings, all grade II built around the same time. This one, known as the Non-Conformist Chapel, though used as storage space, was painted on a Saturday morning in February 2023. I joined a group known as the 'Urban Sketchers' for this paint out, so I had plenty of company on that occasion.
The painting measures 12" x 9.5" and done in oils on cardboard.

Netley Hospital Chapel-Weston Shore

Oil painting of the Victorian tower of Netley Hospital Chapel, rising above the trees in the Royal Victoria Country Park, Hampshire. The chapel is now the only part of the large Military hospital that was situated there still in existence. The park is very close to the Southampton Water/ Weston Shore area of Hampshire and the Chapel tower a local landmark.

The painting measures 10” x 12” and was based on a poor quality mobile photograph taken during a sunny winters day. It was painted using the 'wet in wet ' technique during a one day sitting.
