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.
What mattered here was the rhythm of the forms and the way the light organised the whole scene. Working from life allowed small truths—temperature, colour shifts, and subtle tonal relationships—to steer the decisions.
It’s a record of being there, made with patience and conviction.
