Highgate scenes feature prominently in the annual show by the village's longstanding watercolour group.
But alongside artworks depicting Pond Square, Waterlow Park, and shops and pubs on the High Street, there are locations ranging from the gasholders of King's Cross to the Fort in Jaipur.
As Highgate Watercolour Group spokesperson Jacqueline Freeman notes, members are inspired to paint a range of subjects including rural and urban landscapes, still life arrangements, and abstracts.
Drawn to the secret life of mushrooms, above and below ground, Freeman is showing some of her own Fungi series at Lauderdale House from November 6 to December 2.
"A lot of people think think we all sit together and paint local themes," she said.
"But everyone has their own individual interests and unique way of working and we have a variety of painting styles.
"This year we have some beautiful abstract compositions and still lifes, a lot of seascapes and floral depictions."
Freeman says not every artist in the group is a watercolourist - the works in the exhibition are all on paper, but alongside water based paint, some are in pastels, pencils, and inks.
"With watercolours there is an element of not having control," she explains.
"The paint does what it wants, and part of the beauty is they way the water and paper work together and affect how the pigments emerge - you see them peeping through the texture of the paper, and that can have beautiful effects.
"It can add to texture and depth and give a lot of movement.
"You see some amazing light effects - some of the light and shadows in landscapes or water scenes in the show are spectacular."
The group was founded in 1980 as part of the Highgate Society and meets weekly at the society's headquarters in 10A South Grove.
Members take it in turns to give a workshop or prepare a still life and Freeman says they range from people in their 40s to retirees in their 80s who have "a huge amount of experience we can all learn from."
"Some are graphic artists, fine artists, designers, technical illustrators or art teachers, some have exhibited internationality," she adds
"We try and support and encourage each other - everyone offers comments but it is always positive and constructive."
A total of 20 artists are exhibiting around 200 artworks in the free show, which takes over both galleries at the Highgate arts centre. Scenes depicted include many familiar landmarks from Camley Street Natural Park, Regent’s Canal, Primrose Hill and Stephens House & Gardens.
All work is on sale for between £50 and £350, which Freeman says is "amazing value" for original art of such quality.
The Highgate Watercolour Group exhibition runs at Lauderdale House from November 6 to December 2.
