"EROS is in the middle of Piccadilly Circus. The statue of Eros is made from aluminium [or aluminum of you are from North America]. It was the first sculpture in the world to be cast in aluminium and is set on a bronze fountain. This spot at the Bottom of Regent Street and just along from Leicester Square is very special. This is where there used to be flower sellers and newspaper vendors shouting their wares and competing with London’s noisy traffic. Considered by Londoners to be the centre of the universe. " CR
EROS by Colin Ruffell
Signed and numbered Fine-art print
EROS is one of the London cityscape pictures from my portfolio of giclee fine-art prints.
Visiting famous places is one of the most fascinating things that I have ever done. Of course I am lucky because I was born in London which is crammed with iconic venues. But over the years I have visited, and painted, lots of other wonderful places. All over the world.
This is how I do it.
Go and see the place whenever possible. Make sketches or plein air painting, take photos, gather background information. Bring back to my studio here in Brighton UK.
Then I can paint the original painting. Next I scan the image to make a master digital file. We own a wide format Epson giclee printer meaning that I can make my own test proofs, then print-on-demand to the highest international standards providing a valuable investment for your fine-art collection.
