ESKLEIGH VIEW

On Saturday March 16, I spent the morning drawing at the Eskleigh property, about 20 klms south of Launceston. The aim was to produce some artwork that I could scan on my computer, simplify, then add colour.

I will be posting some examples on my artblog soon (artkleko.wordpress.com)

For this post I have included some of what I saw.

DERWENT 1.

The Derwent Valley, in Southern Tasmania, is one of my favourite areas of my island home. I have family connections there and as a child, spent many enjoyable years there fishing for trout.

Today's view is from the township of Hayes. I will post more images over the next few days.

NOW AND THEN

On a visit last year to the South Esk River, not far from Launceston, I photographed the bridge there, and wondered what it looked like before there was a bridge ...

THE TAMAR VALLEY

This view of the Tamar River was taken from Brady's Lookout, just North of Launceston.

The Tamar Valley is Tasmania's largest wine growing area.
