“ALL OF LONDON LIFE IS THERE”

Drawing London Group

at the Barbican Library

Silk Street, EC2Y 8DS

Friday 30 November – Saturday 22 December 2018

The Drawing London Group are artist friends keen to explore the vibrant life and colour of London. We meet every month to sketch and paint in familiar and lesser-known areas of London such as Leadenhall Market, Covent Garden , Southbank and Greenwich.

In our upcoming exhibition, inspired by the title of our show (a quote from Ben Jonson’s ‘Bartholomew Fair’) we will be showing London Life depicted in a wide variety of media including watercolour, oil, iPad and pencil drawing.

Bill Aldridge introduces our show on London Live news
