Drawing of St Giles, Langford, Essex

St Giles Church in Langford

The subject for my drawing is the beautiful St. Giles Church in the village of Langford, near Maldon in Essex. I have the double-pleasure of not only being introduced to it for the first time and capturing its beauty, but next year I am honoured to be a best man to a close friend within its 11-12th Century walls. I am really looking forward to the build up to the day.

My late afternoon illustration captures the low sun's light cutting across the grounds, with the mature trees casting their long finger-like shadows across the roads that pass two sides of the Church.

The church is believed to be Early Norman construction, and roman artifacts have been discovered on the site too.
