Night light, Lots Road Power Station, 6" x 8", oil on gessoed card, 2010


My day was overcrowded and I wasn't really happy I didn't get a painting done. But then I thought we have longer days now! So I set out when it was 21.30 to somewhere around my studio and by 22.00 I had found a spot. I worked under a very bright lamp post and was able to finish my first night painting on a 6" x 8" format. I hope to do more and improve as I go along!

Enjoy the pics below.

This painting makes London look so peaceful, its a wonderful moment of the day to paint - day fading into evening. I love the textures of the paint too. Lovely!

Hi Adebanji! I really love the way you capture the night scenes, there's always something magic about the way you do them. This one is wonderful. I like seeings pics of you at work too - it gives us a good idea of how you work.
