Australian Watercolour Artist

City/Urban Gallery

With a constant stream of humanity, people in a cityscape add a suggestion of purpose to the buildings. Crowds of city workers provide meaning to a canvas of city life, frenetic abstracted forms and shapes guided and channelled by streets and towering buildings. Unlike a nocturne where the buildings own the space, a daytime cityscape usually shows its purpose determined by the pulse and rhythm of people and cars etc in a constantly changing scene.
