The fourth in my "Arabian Night" series this one is set in the Atlas Mountains region of Morocco, so not actually Arabian...
An imaginary fortified Kasbah is set against a moonlit sky with an emphasis on the contrast between the green/blue sky and the red/orange buildings so based on the colour complementary. As usual I have a couple of windows with lights on... The architecture is based on the distinctive style of the region and the Atlas Mountains can be seen in the background at right.
Oil on fine cotton 16" x 12".
There is a step-by-step progress through this painting in previous posts on this blog.
