A Day in Ipswich

I've been out and about over the last few days, most of the time I've remembered to have my camera with me, although on one of my outings I did forget the batteries and only realised when I wasn't anywhere near a shop. But despite that, I did manage to take a few photo's. These are a few I took in Ipswich.

Timbered Building on Sloane Street Ipswich


Christchurch Mansion Ipswich

 I spent a good couple of hours looking around the beautiful Tudor Christchurch Mansion which also houses the Wolsey Art Gallery. I came across this lady on the wall just outside the gallery, isn't she lovely?

Outside the Wolsey Art Gallery, Ipswich


On the Pond in Christchurch Park



Christchurch Park, Ipswich

Most of these photo's will be used as research and inspiration for the paintings I'm doing for my Gallery Exhibition in June. I haven't done any crafting that I'm able to show you this week so I hope you enjoyed my pic's instead. 


 Don't forget to pop over to Handmade Harbour and join in the Linky Party.

Wishing you a great week end

    Interesting pictures - wonder where the rest of the lady went to?! Never been to Ipswich, the first picture reminds me of Chester, near me.

    A lovely collection of photographs and it was sunny as well! I'm sure you'll create some beautiful paintings from these.

    I've never been to Ispwich and loved seeing the timbered building. I wonder why the lady has been left on the wall? I can't wait to see what you create from the photos. Have a lovely week.
