Original artwork description:

Original painting by Alan Harris, contemporary British artist,
View of the old Battersea Power Station, across the River Thames at night.
Acrylic painting on canvas 24x16"
Growing up in a city like London, left indelible marks in Alan's memory and in his paintings. Empty, dark streets, with semi-dilapidated buildings and stray cats roaming the streets, were the first characteristics of his paintings. In his late work,  he evolves to more modern images where traffic and bustle, the lights and people appear in his paintings giving life and showing the change that globalization has brought to the world..

Always with a great sense of architectural space, Alan has managed to paint in his work a unique concept that stands out from his contemporaries. His ability to abstract the main elements of each city and create that image with which the public easily connects and which is part of their own experience is unique.

Alan Harris works with a variety of mediums and subjects, oils, watercolours, pastel, mixed media, and sculptures.
Some comments on Alan's work:
"There is something about viewing Alan's painting, that has a peaceful, calm, force about it. It slows the senses, so the dreams that come will hold our ability to drift off into that peacefulness!!"
