New York has two main concentrations of
high-rise buildings: Midtown Manhattan and Lower Manhattan, each with
its own uniquely recognizable skyline.
This Painting is set in the evening red
sunset light, casting cool blue shadows and dark reds, magenta and
orange shadows – juxtaposition with the metallic gold glittering
tops that resonate in the twilight.
Emotional Explosion.
To paint an artists needs to gather
what has attracted and inspired him to paint it onto canvas.
The act of doing this is as different
and as varied as your own fingerprint. Some like to sketch an almost
photographic picture while others explore the expression and feel of
a séance or portrait.
Having done both I prefer the
excitement of a view to transfer itself through your emotions and
direct onto the canvas by painting that first explosion of colours
and almost abstract physical excitement at the sometime controlling
the juxtaposition and contrast of darks and lights while letting them
freely intermingle and clash in an extemporize and emotional
composition.
