Lunch! Print

Whilst visiting Ropley station on the Mid Hants Railway, also known as 'The Watercress Line’. This is an old historic line with steam engines. Run by hardworking volunteers who have re-opened the railway so that everyone can experience the joy of travelling by steam train through the gorgeous English countryside. I spotted these chaps taking a break for their lunch. I loved how they all sat in a row looking almost like a birds on a wire. The monochrome style gives the painting a timeless feel, it could be a scene from 70 years ago or last week. I wanted to capture the men’s expressions and the way they interact as they sat and ate their sandwiches. There is also the romance of the subject with a hint of steam billowing towards them from a train just out of view waiting at the platform. If you get a chance to visit The Watercress line, in Hampshire England, do it, you may see five volunteers in old overalls sitting down for lunch.
