Tower Blue 6  forms part of my London Landmarks Collection – recreating iconic buildings of London.

I spent many years working in and around London and love wandering near Tower Bridge – immersing myself in its history and maritime heritage.

My representations of Tower Bridge abstract from details of the stonework and the ironwork and also represent Tower Beach on the banks of the Thames near the bridge.

I've used found materials in the painting such as Cornish Granite dust, Portland Stone, sand, and rivets to reflect the architecture and setting of the Tower. The colour palette is also drawn from the building’s setting. The shapes and the grid of the painting echo the man-made forms. I wanted to emphasise the muscularity and industrial feel of the Tower.

The work can be hung using the hangings attached.

Tower Blue is a largish artwork that creates a bold visual statement.

It forms part of my London Landmarks Collection – recreating iconic buildings of London.

My representation of  Tower Bridge shows a stylised sketch of the bridge itself, with details of the stonework and the ironwork. It also represents Tower Beach on the banks of the Thames near the bridge.

Oxo Tower Red 5 forms part of my London Landmarks Collection – exploring some of the city’s most recognisable buildings, set within evocative urban landscapes.

Having spent many years working in and around London, I’ve always been drawn to the South Bank—its layered histories, its maritime past, and the quiet drama of its architecture. Oxo Wharf, in particular, has long captivated me. Originally built as a power station, it was later acquired by the makers of Oxo stock cubes. When the Tower was constructed, its windows were designed to “coincidentally” spell out OXO—a clever workaround at a time when skyline advertising was prohibited.

My interpretations of the Oxo Tower and its surroundings distil elements of the building and its setting: the brickwork, the iron structures, the industrial signage, and even the small stretch of beach revealed at low tide along the Thames. These fragments become the foundation for abstraction.

I incorporate found materials—brick dust, sand, iron oxide—to echo the Wharf’s industrial character and physical presence. The palette is drawn directly from the site, while the grid and geometric forms reference the man‑made structures that define the area. Through these choices, I aim to convey the muscularity and raw, architectural energy of the Wharf.

The work can be hung using the hangings attached.

South Bank Yellow 4 forms part of my London Landmarks Collection – exploring some of the city’s most recognisable buildings, set within evocative urban landscapes.

The South Bank Yellow series reimagines London’s South Bank through an abstract, material‑driven lens. Inspired by the area’s iconic Brutalist architecture — from the Southbank Centre to the National Theatre — the work focuses on the site’s distinctive yellow staircases, raw concrete forms, and the tidal beach along the Thames.

Using acrylics alongside found materials of cement dust and sand, the painting echoes the physicality of the buildings themselves. A palette of concrete greys, industrial yellow, glass tones, and sky light is organised into a grid of bold shapes, softened by circular motifs drawn from the architecture’s surface details. The result is a textured, muscular composition that captures both the weight and the energy of this landmark cultural landscape.

The work can be hung using the hangings attached, or can be hung direct to the wall on screws or nails.
