High Ridge 7-9 Painting

This painting is part of a growing body of work focusing on typical North London architecture and neighbourhoods. As is often the case, I noticed this unassuming residential block of flats while on an early morning walk, and was drawn to its shapes, the sharp contrast of its beacon of light against the darkness, and the intrigue of its windows. We are left guessing whether anyone is home. This painting is realised in acrylic (my preferred medium) and small amounts of tinted charcoal. I enjoy the way that charcoal pigments often mix with the paint in random ways. In the gestures I also often use my paintbrushes as one would use pencils, bringing drawing techniques into the painting process. I used a very limited palette of pigments to generate an array of bright colours that deviate sharply from the reality of the subject, and give its own life and identity to the painting. The painting has d-rings at the back and is ready to hang.
