A Rainy Night in the City - 2011


A rainy night in the City.

An oil painting of a photo taken on the way to Liverpool Street Station in London after visiting the 400 Women Exhibition in Shoreditch.  Whilst walking back to the station in the rain,  I liked the way the street and building lights reflected on the wet pavement and the buildings glimmered in the night sky.  People hunched up in the rain rushing to their various destinations, buses in the distance turning the corner, nearly to the station which is just around the bend depicted through the blurred vision of the viewer.  A hive of activity irrespective of the wet and cold weather.

Latest Paintings

 Behind the Fence.

An oil painted image from a photo taken whilst walking around my local area.   This picture could be from anywhere, it depicts a mass of disorderly plant growth rising from the earth but kept behind a mesh fence.  Nature, but kept out, kept back, kept away.
 


Ontario Tower

Oil on Canvas.  Every time I travel through Blackwall, the O2 building peeps through the gaps, once described as a "Great White Elephant".  The landscape of London's docklands is changing at an accelerated rate now that the Olympics are almost upon us and is almost unrecognisable from the the Docklands of 10 years ago.

North London Flat Lands

I frequently go past these flats in Ponders End, via car and train.  You can see them from as far away as Harlow, whilst driving down the M25, the A10 and the North Circular  They seem to have always been there!  Over the years the colours have changed, they have been updated and intercoms have been put in
