Original artwork description:

I was struck by this image as I left Singleton Park in Brynmill, Swansea.
First, it was the stunning reflections of the many trees, hedges and bushes reflecting on the window of the Brynmill Coffee House opposite me, in the brilliant Spring sunlight. There are even teeny people in the right bottom of the picture, walking way on a distant Singleton Park path.
Then I saw the two friends, huddled over their coffee and around a good chat.
Then I saw how the trees and bushes reflected through them and how there were other visual layers here. The objects and plants on the window sill, the table, in the back distance of the darkened coffee house itself, on the counter and far wall, many layers of image, on top of each other, some going in and some coming out the window.
I love reflections especially when they produce multi-layered images such as this.
A time reflecting on the past while in many reflections.

Materials used:

oil painting on linen canvas
