The Old Dairy to the west of Kenwood House was restored relatively recently and the view opened out. It’s used as a centre for volunteers and it’s a popular subject for local artists!

Local artists who live in the London Borough of Haringey are taking part in the Artists Walk at Alexandra Palace from the 1st July – 30th September. There will be a trail featuring 25 artists whose work will be displayed in the park. As I’m taking part I thought I’d chose some of my North London watercolour paintings for this post, a selection from different seasons and different times of day. From Crouch End to Hampstead. Hope you like them!!
