Cityscape - Composition V Painting

I find the rooftop cityscape a fascinating subject, especially a city with the architecture that Vienna has. We go about our daily lives looking ahead, more often looking down - rarely looking up. Street level images are familiar. Looking across the rooftops, viewing a city from above brings an alternative to a familiar environment. We experience our ever-changing surroundings with a central focus. Our peripheral vision is less defined. I have worked with this theme to develop my visual identity. I mainly work in oil, with its rich texture on both canvas and on wooden panels. Along with its slow drying quality oil enables me to scrape away surface, thus creating layers and history in the image. I use large handmade rubber scrapers, and printmaking rollers to create a less defined final image. Both Mark Rothkos’ use of colour and composition, along the large-scale abstract paintings of Gerhard Richter have been of constant interest to me.
