]]> This is another view from Hampstead Heath park. I made a larger version in square format, which you can also find here on my website. The aim of this painting was to focus on the panorama, and to depict the buildings in the London skyline. You can see the part of the City of London, London Bridge… It’s impressive to see the buildings live because they are really close. Hampstead Heath is a wonderful and very popular park, because you can enjoy a lot of greenery, as you can see at both ends of the picture.

Both Hampstead and Hampstead Heath are areas that I have painted a lot, as I have spent a lot of time there. They are and have been part of my work practically since I started painting watercolours.

The post London Tower Bridge appeared first on Jose Sánchez Peinado.

]]> This painting was born from a plein air session with fellow artists, right in the heart of one of London’s most iconic spots. Tower Bridge is a place where the city never stops—tourists, locals, boats drifting on the Thames. While painting, I had hundreds of people stopping to watch and talk to me, turning the moment into a shared experience rather than just a solitary study.

Capturing this scene from life meant working fast. The light was constantly shifting, demanding quick decisions and confident brushstrokes. That’s the beauty of plein air painting—it carries an energy, a spontaneity that studio work can’t quite replicate.

In this piece, I focused on rendering the tower with detail, making it the anchor of the composition, while letting the trees and vegetation on the right remain loose and fluid, balancing precision with movement.

This painting isn’t just a view of Tower Bridge; it’s a moment frozen in time—one that holds the rhythm of the city, the energy of passersby, and the thrill of painting in the open air.
