Challenge no. 6: architecture - pen and ink. This is the isolated church of St Dunstan in Bolnhurst. When the plague came in the 14th century, the surrounding village relocated a mile away to the north, leaving the church standing alone in the fields. I sketched one of its windows a few months ago. Today I tried to capture some its sadness at is stood locked and darkening against the evening sky. Pandemics have accelerated social change in the past. Maybe they will again. |
