Description
London's Houses of Parliament in the early evening. I've changed the title of this, as the orange glow is due to floodlighting, rather than a sunset.Oil pastels (Sennelier and Neopastels) and and underpainting of wax pastels (Neocolor I) on pastel paper. A4 size (12x8 in).

Just beautiful! Love the confidant use of colour, light and tone. Wondering if it was created from a photo? It's stunning

Hi - yes, it was based on a reference photo, but I think the oil pastels give it an extra twist

I'm obsessed with England and Japan. If you take requests, can you draw a pagoda in Japan for me? You don't have to if you don't want to though. Thanks again.

The contrast between the oranges and the blues is quite delightful!
