Lough Cutra Castle..What a great day..
We had a fabulous time at the castle on Sunday. Susie was the perfect hostess – we were made to feel like kings and queens in her beautiful home. We had two models for our day of life drawing. Joanne sat for the morning session and Becky, our jockey, sat for the afternoon. As you will see from the following pics, some excellent work was produced.
