Cambridge – A Day Out
Just a few photos of architecture during my day out in Cambridge.
Watercolour Journey – Futurist Plane
A few weeks ago, I stumbled across the Russian contemporary artist Georgy Kurasov. I liked the way he fitted the form of the object being painted into geometric shapes. As a result, I’ve been inspired to try my own, albeit much simpler, piece.
Watercolour Journey – Tibetan Mountain
Following on from the Smugglers’ Tower painting last month, I wanted to try another landscape. The original plan was to paint either a mountain or desert scene and, like the Smugglers’ Tower painting, give it a fantasy background history.
Watercolour Journey – Turner-inspired Painting
I’ve recently been inspired by J.M.W. Turner’s watercolour paintings, so I decided to attempt his style myself. Turner used a technique of extreme layering in his paintings allowing him to make minute changes…
Watercolour Journey – Accidental Futurism
The above painting, Streamliner Through City, started off as an attempt to be bolder and less realistic with colour in an attempt to mix up my colour style…
Watercolour Journey – Military Scenes
I’ve been working on some watercolour paintings alongside the Mapping Suprematism project. Three of the most recent have had a military theme whether it be naval, army or siege based.
Mapping Suprematism – An Artistic Exploration

The Southbank Centre
Following on from the end of 2021’s Barbican visit, I was recommended to visit another example of Brutalist architecture in London, the Southbank Centre.
The Barbican Estate and Surroundings
On a cold Tuesday morning, I decided to have a short photography trip focussed specifically around the Barbican Estate. The Estate itself provided some great opportunities thanks to the harsh concrete aesthetic and strong geometric structure…
Tower Bridge and Bermondsey
Another weekend, another trip to London. This time from Liverpool Street station, across Tower Bridge and through Bermondsey. After a late lunch in The Gregorian pub, I then walked to Hayes Gallery before heading across London Bridge and back to Liverpool Street station.
