Impressionist Watercolour of People #1

Eros, London, England - 16" x 24"

Most of my watercolours are painted on Saunders Waterford paper, but now and again I select Arches, as in this case. I wanted to capture the hustle and bustle of people going about their business in this hugely popular London attraction. My overall aim was to keep everything simple, and reduce detail to give an impression of movement. Notice the lack of detail in the faces, too. It creates more anonymity, so typical of city life.
