An older watercolour drawing from when I used to make frequent trips to sketch in London. This shows the Embankment with lots of pigeons, a pavement artist and a couple of Japanese young women on one of the benches. This was sold at an exhibition. #art #pleinair #London #Thames #watercolour

Another London sketch dug out of a portfolio, done on a Sunday in 1992 sitting in a doorway on Ludgate Hill looking up to St Paul's. I found another St Paul's drawing where the paper has deteriorated but this one has survived OK. #art #watercolour #enpleinair #London #StPauls

I mentioned earlier today that I had done a watercolour of the London Royal Courts of Justice in the Strand. This is it from 1993 (see alt text). I did several paintings wandering up and down the Strand and also in the Inns of Court. #London #TheStrand #watercolour #ink

Watercolour drawing of the Royal Courts of Justice with people waiting for buses and walking by in the rain. I started this on the spot but took photos in order to carry on with it at home because of the rain. A few brown spots have developed in storage (foxing).

One more London one, an oil on canvas of #Leadenhall Market. My wandering around the City of London in the '90s was a revelation. I thought Leadenhall particularly wonderful and did several paintings there although this one was mostly worked on at home. Sold in an exhibition. #London #painting

An oil on canvas of Leadenhall Market in the City of London. It still had market traders then. Does it have them now? I don't know - perhaps it has been completely gentrified. Haven't visited for a long time.

Time for another one of my old London paintings. I completed this one on a crowded street and the main focus is St Martin-in-the-Fields but I also enjoyed dashing in the passing people with a few pen strokes. This went into an exhibition and sold immediately. #art #streetart #London #watercolour

A watercolour drawing of the well-known central London church St-Martin-in-the-Fields, triumphantly designed by Scottish architect James Gibbs. He didn't design the six red telephone boxes though - that was Sir Giles Gilbert Scott who was also responsible for Battersea Power Station.

Via James Montgomery: St James’s Park #London this #spring morning. As you can see, London is an absolute hellhole.

More views of that brand new sculpture by the mysterious street artist Banksy. It is attracting a lot of attention and drawing crowds since the eye-catching sculpture popped up in central London. #art #sculpture #banksy #london #travels

As the previous watercolour drawing of the Thames from 1993 received a good response here's another from a similar spot a couple of years later. #watercolour #London #TheThames
