Nice paintings, Carlos!

Thanks, Thomasin!

Just stumbled across these...beautiful little paintings. I love how you captured the feeling of the architecture. There is a lot of atmosphere in these. Would love to see more ...

Carlos,

I always enjoy the juxtaposition of old and new in your work. In fact there is a touch of humor in it. From your paintings I would guess that you have a good sense of humor that is not obvious at first meeting. Whether that's actually true, I have no idea!

I love the dark doorways, and in the first one, I especially love the way you can see into the interior space. It gives the painting depth, mystery, and also a secondary focal point.

Thanks for your comment, David. I am planning to do a series of these little works when I get the time. Hope it

Today
 

Hi to all,

I wanted to post this new one I just finished. In the same line as the previous 2 in this thread.
Also culled from various photos and "recomposed" and "distilled" on the panel.

Carlos,
I like this new addiction ;) it is an exquisite demonstraton of body language and very picturesque, keep up!

One day I'll come down to your town and paint with you.

Thanks for your response Allan. It is exactly what I want to achieve in this little series: atmosphere and body gesture/language. Aside from the fact that I derive pure pleasure out of painting them.

You will be very welcome. It would be an honour to paint alongside you.

Carlos these are really neat. I like the spontaneity of them.
