  • Why did you create this work?
    I illustrated the covers of the summer issues of 'The Covent Gardener' and 'The Mayfarer' magazines. I used a composition that looks at the city from above to bring to life the vibrancy of the Covent Garden market and the Royal Arcade, surrounded by summer flowers. I was able to capture the details of the flowers blooming towards the sky.
