oil on cradled panel, 2024, 7 x 5 inches (18 x 13 cm)
this is a park with a bandstand in the Basque capital, Vitoria-Gasteiz. It’s a beautiful city with much greenery, and this is the view from my hotel when I stayed there in autumn 2015. More or less. I love painting on this scale, the extra looseness it gives to the brushmarks is very satisfying.
