Evening Light

Starting the year with one of the last paintings I did in 2010. My perception of the colours and shades associated with the evening, as the sun goes down like an orange ball of fire.

Here is a close-up of the piece...

...and another detail of a tree trunk.

I'm enjoying my mixed media outings. Since last month I have also been working on a series of paintings inspired by the rural milieu I see around me. Living in a suburban area often gives you rare insights into the lifestyles of people from another strata that you would never be able to catch in a bustling city set-up. Hope I can catch a glimpse of that through my work.
