Original artwork description:

A short street, near my grandmother’s old home, a place of shadow and light. The light of an early Scottish evening, soft, as though the flesh of peaches and apricots, turning the stone golden in places, brown in others, like caramel. Mature trees cast their webs of dappled shade, muting the hum of traffic on the Queensferry Road. I loved the play of light, the windows, triangles of dark and colour. This work is a wonderful souvenir of Edinburgh.
Texture has been added to create extra depth. The canvas is 0.5 inches deep and can therefore hang without a frame if wished.

acrylic and card
