Thanks - I love your architectural paintings - I'm guessing you're a fan of Edward Hopper?

Thanks - I use this painting as an introduction to abstract for students. The paradox is that it's actually photo - realism! I took the reference photo down an unfurling banana palm.

beautiful colors and shapes!
maybe a stupid question but, is it what the real colors look like?

These are absolutely true colours. I took the reference photo at "The Lost Gardens of Heligan" in Cornwall U.K. The shot was straight down the unfurling "bud" of the banana palm. Thanks for the comment.
