"Guildhall", Derry
This was the first large picture I painted in Derry. I met a local artist who was selling his pictures near the approach to Peace Bridge. He showed me his picture of the Guildhall painted from the wall which had a cannon. So I decided to paint from the same place. But a big tent for a temporary music event obstructed my view. I was compelled to come down to the ground level and painted the Guildhall in the middle of my picture and put the tent on the right side. This building survived The Troubles as well.
