For those of you with low vision:
This painting depicts the cropped view of a window with a curtain radiating an amber glow as it catches the sunlight. The mullions and window blinds, cast a grid of shadows onto the surrounding burnt sienna wall. In overlapping view, reminiscent of a double exposed photograph, is the view of a vehicle on a populated street with two figures seated inside. Stairs running up the side of a building, painted in monochromatic tones are set behind the vehicle. In the very center of the composition, is a square highlights the seated figures as it is painted true to color with full saturation. Embedded in the paint are faint traces of a nautical chart.
These descriptions are being rushed onto all the website paintings. Please accept that they are a work in progress. Thanks for your consideration.
