Of one of my favourite streets in East London, a little alley really, called the Dray Walk, that turns into a street party every night on weekends. The record shop is amazing, in addition the little cafe in it has the best coffee on this side of Brick Lane. Not to mention the amazing boutiques and sumptuous pizza at Story Deli.
Meanwhile I continue posting my tea and coffee cup watercolours on Etsy. I know its totally different from what I paint in oil, but I just can’t get it out of my system yet (saying this while sipping a cup of Napuk brew from Mariage Freres, yum!).

Another expressive little study on my favourite theme. I intentionally paint loose this week, exploring a bit different style. The subject of the Brick Lane set remains my favourite though…

Another take on my favoarite Sunday morning cafe- absoutely love the play of light on the checkered black and white floor there.

This is one of those images that seem so easy and yet so complicated to render… I am getting curious in the street fashion demonstrated by the Brick Lane types, would love to explore it more here…

I am definitely developing a love affair with my neighbourhood…

She has a purpose.
Her bag slung over her arm, she’s on her way
Not really rushing
But not going slow
She doesn’t notice the sun
Shining so rare, shining in her face
Her head is down, her eyes are blank
She only sees where she’s going.
She has a purpose.
Her bag slung over her arm, she’s on her way

Brick Lane was closed for traffic as long as I remember it, but a few weeks back the train bridge work (leading to Shoreditch tube stop) over it was completed and the space opened up. No more pedestrian and bikers jam on Sunday market days. But please someone tell me they’ll dome something to beautify the final result.

Another painting to my East London series. Loved the way the light fell on the people inside and the play between the flowers’ and light fixtures reds.
Learned yesterday about one of my paintings getting accepted to the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition this year. Come see it 8 June-16 August at the RA Main galleries.

A season of frilly white dresses and big sunglasses has come! `Nevermind it’s bitterly cold and raining here today on Monday when I am posting this – yesterday was the first real sunny and warm weekend here in East End and here’s how i saw it. Also this weekend I blissfully planned a fabulous trip later in the summer (those things have to be planned way in advance) but will keep the destination a secret for a while.

Same mirrors, same chairs but the girl in a turquoise shirt grabs all the attention.

Popped in there last Monday after a long relaxing weekend in the countryside – to get a breath of yummy smelling London air (ambiance is so cool) and a bite of the best pizza ever.
