Rachel WrightA dramatic sketch in #OilPastel for today's #ArtAdventCalendar. This was a scene laid in #ChirkCastle last year, sunlight glancing through window onto a table set for a medieval feast.
I'm rather pleased with it.

This photo captures the courtyard of Chirk Castle in Wales, featuring ivy-clad stone walls, large windows, and neatly trimmed green lawns under a bright blue sky. A few people are seen enjoying the outdoor seating area, adding a lively touch to the historic setting.
𝙳𝚊𝚗Visited #chirkcastle today. Couldn’t see all of it as some is closed off until March due to conservation work. I alway enjoy a visit here, it’s right on our doorstep.
“The castle was built in 1295 by Roger Mortimer de Chirk, uncle of Roger Mortimer, 1st Earl of March as part of King Edward I's chain of fortresses across the north of Wales. It guards the entrance to the Ceiriog Valley.”
