Towards South William Street, Dublin – 18

Pedestrians, umbrellas and traffic crowd the junction in this acrylic painting looking towards South William Street, Dublin. Light spills from the surrounding buildings, with orange awnings and bright windows reflected across the blue street.

I went all out with colour here, pushing the lights, awnings and activity to capture the verve of a junction that always seems busy, day or night. The colours are deliberately exaggerated — my way of expressing how lively and full of movement this corner of the city feels.
