An artist's view of Ninian Park

Arsenal fan, Jamie Edwards, visited Ninian Park early ... to paint Ninian Park and I love what he's done.




He specialises in painting football grounds in what he calls, Urban Colours, and I think it's fantastic that as well as his vivid colouring, he's looked at Ninian Park from a distance across the park instead of the banal overhead, from a stand or right outside the ground views which are commonplace.




The artist told BBC Wales, "The Cardiff ground was fantastic to visit. It's just so modest and there's that lovely park opposite. There's also the new ground looming over it which highlights the difference in architectural styles."








You can purchase the print and see others here.
