Aquarium # 4

Although this is not produced in my usual style, you can hopefully see that I thoroughly enjoyed producing this piece. This painting was inspired by visit to an aquarium and depicts two children enthralled by the sight before them. On the visit I was captivated by the strong atmosphic contrast between the illuminated backdrop and the silhoutted figures of the children. It is produced in oils on box canvas.
