Shanghai City 12 x 12 Oil SOLD
This is an image from our small but very vibrant Chinatown. It has a rich and fascinating history, and Dales Gallery which I have shown in, is just across the street. There are many rich colours on this street, but red is a standout, so I did a red underpainting and left patches of the red showing through.
Happy New Year! Love this painting Claire. It shares a different side of Victoria. The people and vehicles gives it the feel of the hustle and bustle of the location.
ReplyDeleteHappy New year to you Elizabeth! Thanks for visiting and good luck with your Sketchbook Project. It sounds very exciting.
