A bit about Greenwich
This painting is looking from Nelson Road across Greenwich Church Street. To the left is the Church of St Alfege, named after Alfege, the Archbishop of Canterbury who was murdered on this site in 1012 by The Danes.
Over the centuries there have been many churches on this site although this version of the church, designed by the great and mysterious Nicholas Hawksmoor, was opened in 1714 and consecrated in 1718. Hawksmoor worked alongside Sir Christopher Wren who designed St Pauls Cathedral. He also worked with John Vanbrugh who designed Blenheim Palace. Coincidentally, John Vanbrugh lived up on top of the hill in East Greenwich.

I love the simplicity of the art work, but know it’s harder to do than it looks. Stay safe.
Heh especially for me. I’m a bit of a detail nut.

Hi Ann Marie,
Good to hear from you.
Well, I have no rea plans for the post cars. Just a sort of lockdown diary to keep me on the straight and narrow.
Maybe in the future.
Best wishes

I love all the activities going on in your Padstow painting and the colour and warmth in all your paintings.
Thanks Paulette,
I am bit of an obsessive.

Hello Liam, I really loved your video through London to the Royal Academy of Arts but even more, I enjoyed watching you create that brilliant painting in the right hand corner. Really do like your work.
