I thought I might have a window of rain free painting on this one but it wasn't to be, I sat on the pontoon right on the water surrounded by rowers all enjoying the evening light, the chap rowing on his own became a perfect focal point, even if only for a second. No sooner had I done a quick under drawing and laid my first washes when the rain came.
Whilst the scene was still fresh in my mind I went home and finished it off...without any photo reference I might add, fresher to use ones memory. Very happy with the balance of simplicity and sharpness of the bridge and the Harrods depository roof.
