Kit Glaisyer painted Dulwich Junction after leaving London, drawn to the area through studio visits with artist Rufus Knight Webb. A COVID call revealed an old school friend had moved next door to Rufus. The painting includes a small curtain blowing in an open window, a detail Glaisyer loves capturing.
So this is Dulwich Junction. So it's the third in my series of urban paintings I made when I left London. And this was somewhere I went quite a lot actually because I shared a studio with artist Rufus Knight Webb and he used to live in Dulwich. So I used to go down there quite a lot and it was, yeah, it was nice Dulwich. I didn't really know it very well but, you know, it was a nice change of pace from central London. But it was funny actually, because during COVID I got a call from Rufus's neighbor in Dulwich, and an old school friend of mine had moved in next door to him. I mean, again, it's this thing about crazy coincidences and serendipities in life. I think it's always interesting to, yeah, take note of these coincidences. Look at that little touch, little curtain blowing in the window. I always like that, actually, open windows with curtains in.
