Mixed Media & Metallics on Boxed Canvas, Unframed boxed canvas
“Manhattan Nocturne” is a expansive piece, created on an imposing 5ft x 8ft canvas. This dynamic work, a dazzling amalgamation of solid and metallic media, breathes life into the nocturnal cityscape of Manhattan. Painted in Paul’s unique bespattered & impasto style, it portrays a majestic view of the city at night, from a perspective that leads straight into its vibrant heart. Glimmering roads and sidewalks reflect the elongated lights of traffic, adding a rhythmic flow to the scene while in the distant Chrysler building stands tall against a muted sky.
The palette is a striking mix of warm and cool tones. Fiery yellows, vivid reds, and glowing oranges dominate the scene, creating a lively contrast against the cool dark shades of the towering buildings. These energetic hues amplify the painting’s dynamic mood, echoing the bustling life of Manhattan after dark.

The term “nocturne,” traditionally used to describe a musical composition evoking the night, perfectly encapsulates the painting’s atmosphere. Just as a nocturne envelops its listener in the quiet mysteries and subdued beauty of the night, Paul’s painting immerses the viewer in the vibrant yet serene ambiance of the city that never sleeps. The interplay of light and shadow, coupled with the rich, expressive palette, transforms “Manhattan Nocturne” into a vivid, emotive portrayal of urban nightlife.
