A commission on a deep edge box canvas. 16x36 inches

I’ve been fairly quiet on the painting front recently what with work getting in the way (!) and the recent lovely hot weather unfortunately making my studio more like a sauna! I have managed to find time though to do a commission for a friend living in the pretty lakeside town of Morges in Switzerland. She had taken some photos of Lac Leman from where she lives and asked me to create a lakeside scene for her living room which following her relocation from the UK, was a bit bare!

I really enjoyed the challenge of interpreting the sunset colours and scenery whilst still being faithful to the original reference photo.

My friend was delighted with her commission and tells me it now hangs in pride of place in the middle of her living room.
