London letters, a retrospective

London has always held a special place in my heart. The grey skies, the bustling streets, the quiet parks…

This retrospective captures moments from my recent visit, where I sketched and painted the city’s hidden corners. There’s something magical about wandering through neighborhoods with a sketchbook in hand, watching the light change as afternoon turns to evening.

Discovering Hidden Corners

The beauty of London lies not just in its famous landmarks, but in the unexpected moments - a weathered doorway in Shoreditch, the play of light through autumn leaves in Regent’s Park, the colorful facades of Notting Hill houses.

Postcards from London

These are my visual postcards from London - quick sketches made in cafes, parks, and street corners.

The Sketchbook Chronicles

There’s something liberating about sketching on location. No perfect setup, no controlled lighting, just you and the scene unfolding before you. These quick studies capture the energy and movement of the city in ways a photograph never could.

From the elegant Victorian architecture of South Kensington to the street art of Brick Lane, each neighborhood has its own visual language, its own rhythm and character.
