As the afternoon edges towards its end, I spend a last few hours visiting Wimbledon. A modernist building catches my eye, evocative, sturdy, reminiscent of 1970s confidence and a quest for sunlight through large windows. I note the light blue panels that remind me of childhood. Just to the right begins a row of Victorian […]Read Post ›
A favourite London walk, through Marchmont, brings me to a house I have never noticed, its frontage a striking green stucco. It is festooned with beautiful purple and red flowers. The windows are shrouded with nets, reminding me perhaps of an ancient wedding dress. What lies inside? I love London’s small hidden nooks and crannies. […]Read Post ›

A day of freedom, a day of walking and exploring, seeking out quiet streets, forgotten it seems, but the day is early. This work depicts a café on a street corner, a gentle […]Read Post ›
On a walk in London, aimless and free, I noticed this building on a corner, and I was struck by its brick design; 1, 2, 3. The building itself drew me further, and I admired the variety of bricks, different colours being used to create patterns, as the bricks, unlike paint, wouldn’t vanish under a veil […]Read Post ›
A quiet magic settles over this corner of the huge city; a shop prepares to close early, yet the lights still shine brightly, time still to purchase joy, trimmings for the feast. There is snow on the ground, winter in the air, a scent of smoke. On the walls, Christmas decorations. Christmas is coming.This work […]Read Post ›
