Embassy Court Dusk

Finally finished this painting after a wonderful 5 days in Prague interrupted progress! I have wanted to paint this well-known Art Deco building in Hove (just I think) for some time but could never find an angle I was happy with. Then a friend, Kate Shields, moved to a penthouse flat and started having life drawing sessions there; on the way out of her flat  after a drawing session I saw this view from the back of the building and realised I had my angle. The lighting and colour are my invention as I didn't want a white building! Oil on board 36" x 18".
