Original artwork description:

This painting of a well known bar in Uplands Swansea called Noah's Yard, is modeled on the famous Manet painting "A Bar at the Folies-Bergère" but with two differences. The scene is now down town Swansea and the work is expressionist not impressionist. I love the use of expressionism in urban scenes as it can seem more vivid and dynamic, muscular and rhythmic, more funky even.

Materials used:

oil painting on linen canvas
