Prince George Trafalgar London 347 Acrylic

Prince George Trafalgar London 347 Acrylic on Stretched Canvas 30cm x 40cm x 2cm (12 inches x 16 inches x 0.5 inches)

This little, cute study painted was painted many years ago when I would go and paint and sketch famous landmarks in London as a student and for practice.

Trafalgar Square was not as busy as it is today except in the summer when it was always hard to find a spot out the way to paint and usually with my back to the wall to stop tourist coming up behind and taking photos or even pushing me to get a better view.

The style is modern quick and Setchey which I like a lot as it captures something more true to live thane any finished work would be. You will notice a technic I used was to paint flat plan colour then allow to dry and the draw in dark lines and the add highlights to finish off the quick sketch painting. It's a style I found and adopted over years in my City of London Paintings, which I am well known for. It must be an adaptation for studying the artist Raoul Dufy.
