Tackling a rainy cityscape may seem daunting, with buildings, perspective, vehicles and figures all adding up to a complex mix.
Alvaro Castagnet, knows Swanston Street so well, he has absorbed its vibrant atmosphere into his soul, and that shows in this lovely interpretation.
Alvaro used a photograph shot in the rain, promising to paint this moody, rainy day scene back in his studio using his “Four Pillars of Watercolour” strategy. Inspiring!
