Pigeon Song Pavilion Gardens Brighton

Print description

My studio is next to Pavilion Gardens, I can actually see the domes from my window. It is inevitable that from time to time, this subject comes to my drawing board. So this print depicts a very much love scene in Brighton at Royal Pavilion Gardens, along the path that connects New Road with the Pavilion next to Pavilion Garden Café, a pigeon stands on the railings, probably waiting to be fed. In the background behind the trees are the Brighton Dome and the Royal Brighton Pavilion

Print details

I created this print from my original ink drawings to which I apply colour digitally. Printed on fine art paper using archival inks. From a limited edition of 100. I individually sign and number each print. This print is available in three sizes.

I completed the linework of this print in July 2023. Though this is a project I had for years. At Pavilion Gardens the pigeons are such a distinctive happy presence, I always wanted to capture this. They probably are creating problems in the roofs of the historic buildings that are in this area, though at the same time, when I think of my time spent in India, it always struck me the abundance of natural life in the cities living among people. Since then I always thought that we need to promote this aspect, we need to surround ourselves with natural life as much as possible in our built environments.
