London Horse Guards Parade v. 2

Description

Last October my husband and I spent two weeks in London as part of a larger trip. I brought watercolors, brushes, paint, and a number of sketchbooks that were made specifically for the trip. However, I did hardly any painting.  I did a bit of sketching, but almost no painting. I did take hundreds of photos and have been slowly working some of them into paintings. 

This is the first time I've ever worked up the same photo into a painting twice.  Please look at both and let me know which you prefer, and if you're feeling especially generous comment would be great!

22"x30" Watercolor & my trusted Pilot Namiki Vanishing Point Fountain Pen on 300# Arches.

Tough choice, Jen!

I´d honstly say this one but it´s by a hair!

I wasn´t aware that you can see London Eye from Horse Guard´s Parade to be honest. 

Be lucky you had 2 weeks to be in London as my two trips didn´t last longer than 42 hours each. Did see as much as I could though!

All the best,

Chris
