Yesterday's painting of the Aston Rowant nature reserve on the Chiltern escarpment. . Another hot day, luckily I had a nice bit of shade to hide under. Oil on gesso, 25 x 20 cm.

Spectacular swathes of Common Valerian & Dropwort at #AstonRowant #NNR. Two of my favourite flowers & Dropwort always characteristic of old #grassland in my experience. When does Dropwort ever colonise any new areas today? The Valerian scent was beautiful. @bsbibotany.bsky.social #wildflower
