Capturing london: A Unique Perspective on Oxford Circus Station
As part of my ongoing project, “Drawing All Of london,” I am excited to share my latest illustration of the iconic Oxford Circus Station, a notable landmark in the bustling city. Did you know that this station is the eighth-busiest in the london Underground network? Intriguingly, it stands out as the only station in the top ten ranking not directly connected to a major railway terminal.
The design of Oxford Circus Station is memorable, particularly due to the distinctive oxblood-red tiling that characterizes its entrance, a hallmark of architect Leslie Green’s work. While I contemplated adding a splash of color to enhance the visual appeal, I ultimately decided to maintain the monochromatic theme that runs throughout my project. However, avid observers will notice a hint of color in the Underground roundel—can you spot it?
For those intrigued by my “Drawing All Of London” project, I welcome any questions you may have. Additionally, feel free to visit my website to explore a collection of all completed drawings and learn more about this artistic endeavor: Drawing All Of London. Your support means the world to me! ❤️
Stay tuned as I continue this journey of illustrating the many facets of London, one station at a time.
