SUMMER IN THE CITY: OUR TOP 5 LONDON PRINTS
Posted by Rebeca Romero on 9th Jul 2015
July has arrived and while for many that means getting their bags done and hit the road, many others (like myself) have to stay in town and get some work done.
London is one of the most exciting cities in the world with hundreds of museums, art galleries, parks and monuments, so there is really no excuse for not enjoying the after work afternoons and weekends of warm and sunny July in the city.
Have you been living here for so long now that you forget all the beautiful things this town has to offer? Here I come to the rescue with our TOP 5 London inspired art prints, to refresh your memory and give you some ideas of what to do and where to go in London town.
The pointiest building in whole London, I've heard that fab cocktails are served in their bar and that you can also take yoga clases up there while you check out the city. It doesnt matter if you have actually jumped on to the top yet or not, this beautiful print by Will Clarke brings luxury home. Limited edition, signed and numbered in an edition of 50.
You live in London and you haven't ride the Eye yet? What are you waiting for? The view is unbeatable and after the ride there is also the option of taking a walk by the Southbank. WIN! Bronagh Kennedy pays homage no the attraction with this gorgeous print.
Do you still struggle with finding your way in the city? Not very sure about the whole Borough concept? Fellow expat, Jazzberry Blue has just made it easy to you with his London Borough Print, get it for yourself or for that firiend that left the city a while ago but still feels nostalgic about "the hood".
Now here is a sunny weekend plan. Visit Broadway Market, have a freshly brewed coffee or a cold pint. Meet a friend, browse around the market stalls. Feel the breeze coming down from the canal. Bliss. Broadway Market print by Jane Smith.
So many songs have been written about this great metropolis we live in, Waterloo Sunset by the Kinks has to be one of my favourites. Christophe Gowans must be a fan of the tune too! This summer , feel inspired, take a long walk by the river , watch the sun come down and realise how lucky you are.You are living in London, it doesn't get much better than this...
