City Airport runway

London City airport at sunset Canary Wharf on the horizon.These were from a photo I took just as our plane turned to face the runway.I've started painting the same image twice in slightly different ways or on different supports. By comparing which is working best  the other gets a leg up, as it were

Soapy Creek

One of the weirdest locations I've been to. A peninsula in the Thames. Surrounded by a patrolled asbestos dump the nick named Soapy Creek joins what used to be the first fresh water lagoon coming in to the Thames. It would have been sailors first opportunity to have a proper wash with soap. Apparently the water would change colour when the whole crew had a bathe.

No planes

There were no planes in the sky because of the volcanic dust floating over from Iceland. It might have been a coincidence but the sky really was that colour.
