Getting in Shape

These dhows along the creeks doesn't change after so many years in Dubai when I came to visit recently, it's one of the rich traditional heritage left in this Arabian city. I must thank Mr & Mrs Eronat for their kind hospitality when I stay in Delft,Holland many years back...it's a good opportunity when I met them in Dubai. They are one of my collectors, including this recent painting.

the golden light shines in this painting and the reflection of the water is also aglow with arstery and beauty!

Artist Reply: In this part of the MidEast, Dubai Creek ..the lights are golden orange in colour, the warm rich colours and the bright colours dhows built up the whole picture. But there were certain time in the year where the scenes are misty and dull, I'll will show you later. Thanks Elton!
