I painted this view of the old Bank of Ireland building on College Green on a small acrylic canvas. Its curved, ornate façade was what drew me to the composition.
I imagined some concealed lighting higher up the building to pick out the walls and false windows. The warm oranges stand out against the blues in the sky and the mauves across the pavement.
I added a Dublin bus to give a sense of scale, then filled the foreground with people, reflections and shadows. Those smaller shapes bring movement to the scene beneath the substantial building.
