About This Image

On every trip to London, I seem to find myself in Piccadilly Circus on my last night. It’s become a farewell ritual. This vivid picture was taken just steps from Piccadilly Circus in London’s Soho on my last night in the city several years ago. I was wandering the streets with my camera for some last minute night time photo opportunities before heading back to pack for my flight. Soho and the area around Piccadilly is full of lights which makes it a perfect night-time subject.

Literally out of the corner of my eye, I spotted this Soho side street bathed in a deep red glow. And, well, once you take a second to examine the scene, the red light glow is very appropriate. Just read the signs advertising Table Dancing at the Windmill International.

The vibrant red alone in this urban scene makes for an interesting print. But it’s also an image packed full of little details like the bright neon lights, the dull glow of yellow lights in the frosted glass and rounded off with a bouncer at the roped entrance to the club. There’s a real feel for the night life in London’s Soho here.

When I first posted this print several years ago, I was afraid the subject matter might be a bit risque for typical print buyers, but I’ve yet to have anyone put off by this Red Light Soho print. In fact, I’ve been happily surprised by how many people stop and take notice of this particular print, one of my more popular ones from the streets of London. I guess it goes to show if you find something eye-catching, it’s likely others will also find appeal in it. In the end, after all, it’s a bright red slice of the night-life in a vibrant British city.

How Can I Help?

At the end of the day, it’s important to me that you can put a face with the art you’re considering purchasing through my site. Aside from the print vendor who ultimately prints and ships your order, this is a one man show. The person who made the art is the same one who is typing this message and the one who will answer your questions if you drop me a note.

You are not a number and I care that you are happy with whatever art you might buy here. I’m here if you’d like to ask questions before or after purchasing. And I’m also happy to work with you where possible to customize the work you’re buying. Maybe you’d like a tweak to the shape of a print to fit in with your existing wall art. Or you’d like to add a little nod to someone special in it? Just ask! I also keep a running list of subjects I don’t currently have but people are seeking. So if you enjoy the style of my work but didn’t find quite what you were looking for, please do let me know.

I’ve been an artist for 15 years now and most of that time it’s been my full-time passion. And it matters to both the endorphins in my brain and the food I put on the table for me (and my cats) that you find the experience of purchasing the products offered here to be a pleasure.
