I really enjoyed painting this. There are some details which I’ve found satisfying: In the bottom left corner a few white vans, there’s nothing white about them; The building is mostly clouds and sky but the detail of the office lights really adds to the picture for me; the burly little Oak poking up out of the street. Are there many Oaks in London? A true living tree space.

A few other things I really enjoyed, the shady side of the building that looks like a castle made of grey slabs and glass and lights and the window cleaners braving it out in their high vis. what a job, looking out across the city must be amazing.
