St. Pancras Grand Champagne Bar

Oil on canvas 130 x 90cm

I went to the newly refurbished St Pancras station specifically looking for painting ideas. It's an amazing building to start with and they have done a lovely job. However, from my narrow painter point of view, all the shops and bustle on the ground floor is separated from the majestic roof structure by lots of obstructions. So while the beauty of the upstairs is missed by many as it's not generally on the way, the result is a peaceful level that somehow feels detached from the bumping crowds below.


Here you'll find the Grand Champagne bar from which I've painted the outside kiosk. There is a large indoor area too which has a sense of what the British Empire once was. That's on my list to paint - it's certainly Grand. In this painting I wanted to capture a sense of calm that presides upstairs at St Pancras with a mixture of the warm colour from the bricks and sky glow from the impressive roof structure. There are few people milling about, sorting their suitcases, sipping champagne and admiring the architecture. I liked the station.

Extra Comments on Delivery and My Limited Edition Prints

The artist print on canvas quoted above is the last of 5 limited editions at the original size and is sold stretched over a wooden frame ready to be hung. This series is a 'Relief Geclee', which is a technique I've been working on where I apply a thick, textured clear acrylic coat to the print. This captures the lights in a similar way to the original, produces a textured effect that adds personality, individuality and realism to each of the limited editions. The result is a very good reproduction of the original. Each print is signed, dated and numbered on the back as well as coming with a certificate from the publishing company (signed by myself and the publisher) confirming that the series at the original size on canvas is limited to only 5 copies.

For more details and a picture of the certificate see my Terms page or contact me directly from here.
