This is my contribution to Vern's sketchbook. He said we could paint anything and around the time I was thinking of what to paint- It happened to be a time I was getting mesmerized by rain reflections on London streets.
So I decided to do this piece of an old man I saw around Holborn in London enjoying the rain without an umbrella. Hope you like it Vern-It got me back to using watercolour and gouache.
Are these the last books coming to me or do I still have more to do?
What a beautiful piece Adebanji. Those reflections are superb !
ReplyDeleteIf this one is for Vern than you might have just one more which would be Dean I think ?!
My mistake...... I guess you do not have any more that one was the last one !
ReplyDeleteThanks Dominique, Dean's sketchbook was the post before this one on the homeless guy.
ReplyDeleteBeautifully done, Adebanji! Love your use of color and suggested detail...masterful!
ReplyDeleteYes, mine was the last one! I still have Vern's to go.
It has been a pleasure participating in The Flying Moleskins with you and the rest of the very talented group!!
lovely blog! I will follow.
ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful, Banji! I love rain, too, and here in N. Texas with our triple digit temps, we're dying for some. Love the variety of bright colors and the muted reflections; very, very nice!!
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful, Adebanji. I love the colors and the collection of abstract shapes in this. Brilliant. You are a master of the figure and urban settings in any media. This is your last, because I am working on your book now. It will be back to you next.
ReplyDeleteAdebanji, thanks so much for the beautiful piece. I really enjoy your figurative and cityscape work, so this is awesome. Seeing all your work in person was a treat, and I will miss that. Sorry this comment took so long, but I was away.
