Florence Buzz-Half origional size print on canvas (50x70cm)

When thinking about what to paint, I remembered this scene, my friend leaning against a post with the traffic humming at a red light ready to race off again. the shadows were long and vibrant. I didn't want to paint a typical 'Florence' scene but if you know the place, then you'll recognise that the city is full of these forks in the road, providing fantastically varied cityscape views.

The prints quoted above are limited editions and unless otherwise requested, are sold stretched over a wooden frame ready to be hung. Editions are limited to 5 full size prints and 30 half sized prints. This series is a 'Relief Geclee', which is a technique I've been working on where I apply a very thick, textured clear acrylic coat to the print. This captures the lights in a similar way to the original, produces an individual textured effect and deepens the colours in the print. The result is a very good reproduction of the original.
