I started painting this in situ, on a hot late September day this year (2021). It will be raffled at Friends of Steep Church fund raising event on Sat 16 October. The Norman All Saints Church, has a beautiful Victorian oak shingled bell tower. It is our son Sam's resting place, so very dear to me. The cemetery, partly shaded by an ancient yew and with views across to the South Downs is one of the most peaceful plots of ground.
"A serious house on serious earth it is,
In whose blent air all our compulsions meet.." Philip Larkin
