Above the Courtyard - SOLD
This is a repost of one my all time favourite paintings. I love the quality of sunlight I captured in this one. It brings back warm memories of a year abroad. I hope you have a great weekend. Talk to you soon!

Above the Courtyard
Acrylic on Exhibition Canvas 24 x 24 SOLD
Image is painted around all four sides
When I was living in the Southwest of France I loved the intimacy of the wrought iron balcony with it's warm sunshine and quiet moments with friends, while down below in the courtyard another animated world complete with fountains, children, seniors and pitanque players was taking place. I worked hard at capturing the golden warmth of the early evening sunlight as it hit these gorgeously ripe nectarines and the folds in the cloth. I'm also really pleased with the reflections in the glaze of the ceramic bowl. I used a combination of full body and fluid acrylics to create the glow and light effects.
