"Street scene"


This will always be one of my favourite paintings. It was the first time I dared to let my brush take the lead and paint what I felt, more than what I could see...

For color and composition I think it is beautiful in its simplicity, but would believe that simplicity was hard to come by. An exceptional and lovely painting.
