St. Bartholomew the Great, London

From: £19.95

LOCATION: St. Bartholomew the Great, London
DATE: January 28, 2019

St Bartholomew the Great is one of the oldest buildings in central London, with parts of the old monastery dating back to Mediaeval times. Situated in the historic Smithfield district, I have drawn many aspects of these buildings over the years but this view in particular caught my eye on one of my many city sketch walks. I was drawn to the way the perspective of the scene drew the eye to the tower. The combination of textured brick finishes caught my eye too and I knew they would really help tell the story of the buildings and their rich history, the red brick from a later era contrasting elegantly with mediaeval masonry.

Black ink pen linework with colour marker, gouache and acrylic pen.

Matt ivory fine art paper 270gsm with a light watercolour texture.

There is no better way to capture a scene than sketching live on location and there is something very true about the result. It will never be a photographic representation but the spirit of the scene is evident and the very essence of the subject matter is captured in a way that photography never can.
