A view of Liverpool city towards the Mersey with the tall commercial buildings blocking out the bright sunlight until the sun’s persistence starts to break through and tear open the gloom. On the right, towering above the street, is the Liver Building with its clock tower and the Liver Birds balanced on the cupolas above.
I think I had just come out of a life drawing session and crossed the road to spot this. The life drawing group had been forced to move here from a decrepit but lovely light building to one on the right, There wasnt much natural light on the model down at the bottom of this valley and added to that the room was smaller.

Lovely painting, Graham.

Thanks Tiffany. The old buildings are imposing and portray a moodiness anyway, so it wasnt too hard to get that effect. I just had to hold myself back and not include too much detail. Adding the two figures also helped to create some animation.
