Kenwood Ladies’ Pond became a dedicated bathing space for women in 1926. It is nestled in beautiful Hampstead Heath and offers a tranquil and serene swimming experience in deep, opaque water surrounded by incredible greenery. This stunning spot holds a special place in many people’s hearts and is a welcome escape from City life. Its peaceful environment allows swimmers to feel close to nature and wildlife whilst enjoying all the benefits of cold water swimming.
My aim with this ink and pencil drawing was to capture all the things that make this place so unique and special. I focussed on the beautiful colours reflecting in the pond, mainly from the incredible trees which encircle it. I also wanted to show off the wildlife living harmoniously with visiting swimmers - all enjoying the calmness and tranquility of this charming natural bathing pond.
This is a landscape, unframed giclee print. This drawing is printed on premium Hahnemuhle photo rag paper (308gsm), providing a high quality, archival piece of art at an affordable price. It is available in 4 sizes: 8”x6”, A4 (297mm x 210mm), A3 (420mm x 297mm) and A2 (594mm x 420mm).
