Tate Modern, London

Painted from life, this piece holds the sensation of a moment that was there and then gone. In urban scenes, the challenge is to keep the architecture solid while letting the atmosphere stay open and lived-in.

It’s about atmosphere more than detail—how the place felt, not just how it looked. Working from life allowed small truths—temperature, colour shifts, and subtle tonal relationships—to steer the decisions.

Ultimately, it’s an invitation to slow down and notice what’s already there.
