City Lights With Neil Dawson

28 May 2020
Portfolio Fine Art is delighted to be working with renowned cityscape artist Neil Dawson, and is now launching its first limited edition collection of Neil’s work.

This collection is entitled ‘Time To Reflect’, and is inspired by different scenes from busy cities all over the world. The collection includes pieces such as ‘Piccadilly Night Adventure’ and ‘Times Square Mono’, each piece showcasing his talents and stunning work with lights and reflections.


Neil works with everyday images, taking his inspiration from vibrant cityscapes, and his work allows the viewer to feel a real sense of the hustle and bustle of each different location. Having grown up with a love for art, nurtured at school and whilst studying at Saint Martin’s School of Art in London, he created a successful career for himself in the city. He had always loved the buzz of the streets, especially the feeling at night as he watched the headlights from the traffic being reflected off the wet concrete, and the energy of London buses and buildings reflected in the moonlit Thames.

Reading newspapers and seeing images of faraway cities on TV instilled a passion for travel, which in turn became a springboard for creating his stunning artworks. Experiencing new cultures, surroundings and events, he photographed scenes far and wide, returning home to create amazing and vibrant international cityscapes which had become part of his own life experience. In addition to London, these cities include Edinburgh, Paris, New York, Sydney and Venice. Painting in oil, the mood of his work changes from vibrant and dramatic to calm and serene as the days unfold into night.


Neil says “I am inspired by the energy and colour of cities. I love to paint iconic architecture and imagery - hoping to spark a connection with the viewer, recreating memories of happy times spent in these dynamic cities”.
