Thorp paints in situ wherever she finds an absorbing subject, whether it be a town view, a port, a market, or a flower shop. This gives her paintings a spontaneity, which is reflected in the minute details she seeks to record.
This painting of the gardens in the old Eastern General Hospital was painted while Thorp was Artist in Residence at the hospital.
