Notes From The Artist...
Painted at night on an early fall evening, this scene was evocative of many suburban communities I have visited. People out and about. Walking dogs. Visiting pubs. Getting on the commuter train. Trying to get inside before the next burst of rain.
I wanted to capture the bright flashing lights of the train as it zipped through town.
Also, I included reflections in the sidewalk to suggest the recent rain. I am happy with the energy in this night scene. The people here are based on the actual people I saw out and about that evening.
Exhibited:
