Having visited most of London's Lidos Tooting Bec is in my top three picks. When there I feel like I've stepped back in time, it's not rushed. The changing rooms are at the side of the pool in the open air. A true experience in winter. I sketched this painting on an sunny winters day. The sun was low and this created strong shadows on the doors of the changing rooms/booths. The fluidity of the water versus the solid form of the changing block. No other detail required, I felt this composition sums up the Lido.
 
The original painting of 'Tooting Bec Lido' was painted in 2017 with acrylic paint on Hahnemühle bamboo paper 265gsm.
 
The dimensions of the visible painting are 41.5cm x 55.5cm, with the total size is 42cm x 56cm which includes a 0.5cm border. The painting is signed by the artist. Enclosed with the painting is also a certificate of authenticity signed by the artist.

The painting will be shipped flat, wrapped in tissue paper, placed into an acid free sleeve then secured between several layers of two ply cardboard.
