Lovely work, all that’s missing is a pleicostomus 😉
Liam’s water colours are wonderful, so full of life and character. Thanks for sharing these great scenes. Markets are such important parts of community life. Valerie
Walthamstow (High St) market?
Dear TGA,
Thanks for putting up my paintings on your daily blog. It is people like you, and your readers that keep the whole show on the road.
I am working up to 20 and then I am considering a book of them. 13 so far. See below.

Greg Tingey: Walthamstow is on the bucket list. I lived in Hoe Street for years, and Campbell Road too.
Very fine observed illustrations!
Love & Peace for Paris

Lovely! Looking forward to the book!
How wonderful!
Oh I LOVE these! Does Liam O’Farrell sell prints or postcards?? I’ll google to find out! Just enjoyed a glorious week in The Big Shhhmoke visiting some of these lovely markets. The thing is, in London, even the fruit&veg stalls at tube station entrances and on street corners are works of art in themselves. Ahh London. You are indeed beautiful.
I hope that you do indeed produce said book, Liam. I’m wanting to purchase David Gentleman’s London You’re Beautiful book. Alas, at £80 it’s out of my price range! :o/
WooHoo—I have the one with the face o the side of the building
