Manhattan Hustle

36″ x 72″

Oils on Aluminium

The bustling street life and dazzling lights of Manhattan are painted against a stark grey New York skyline.

Fiery lights of the iconic yellow taxis reflect and flicker around the city, creating the impression of fast movement and energy.

Using a pallete knife, Paul marks down the defined lines and edges of the urban landscape. Finishing details are added with thick brushstrokes of paint, giving this piece a great amount of texture.

Areas of bare aluminium for the windows and metallic surfaces allow for the piece to reflect light, transforming throughout the day.
