St Andrew's church, Ham

4/2/2017

As the dodgers were meeting in a new venue and it was local I could get there and back in time for an early Rugby kick off.
​
An interesting and rather different church but with some well carved woodwork and later well decorated chancel with a splendid roof.  The wider than usual nave made it an uncomfortable proportion.  I find in churches I either do a few details, a selection of details if there are several together or a 'view'.  Resting on the font I went for the latter deciding to have a bit of sketching fun and go bright to emphasise the gilt.

Having done that, with the rain stopped and a little sun went outside to sit in the lych gate and play with the perspective, buttresses and roofs/chimneys. It was still damp so slow drying got some interesting effects....worth returning for another go.
