Original artwork description:

Painted en plein air over a couple of sessions from Millennium Bridge, London.

I started this painting at the end of the afternoon in June 2012. I'd been practicing painting moving boats in preparation for painting the Queen's Diamond Jubilee river pageant a few days later and once I was happy with my sketches I decided to have a go at painting St Pauls. I've always enjoyed this view of St Pauls so towards the end of the afternoon I made a start and then on a returned about a year later to finished it. This was one of the busiest places I've ever painted with hoards of people crossing the bridge. Once I'd set up though, I felt like a rock in a stream and people kindly flowed around me.
