Pollards In A Park In Porto

Husb and I went away for a few days, which is why I haven’t blogged recently. It’s our first trip outside the UK since before Covid19 and to be honest I was nervous, but we met up with family from different parts of the world in Porto in Portugal and it was so lovely. The city is wonderful and I became fascinated with these pollarded Platanus Gigantus, I haven’t seen pollarding like this before, in a park near our hotel, Jardim da Cordoaria. I sat and sketched with a Faber Castell Pitt drawing pen and a stick of charcoal into a very small pocket sketchbook.
