Stormy Notting Hill

This original painting by Michael Steinbrick captures a vista of London’s Notting Hill that is obscured by a screen of raindrops. The artist orchestrates the piece to a hyper-realistic level, deconstructing his reference photo to describe it in detail. The bright range of colours of homes which animate the locations streets serve to enhance the impression of raindrops in the foreground. This captivating rain engulfed perspective translates the droplets with accurate highlights and shadows. A dynamic portrait of the city is achieved in realistic brush work which seems to transcend the realm of actuality into abstraction. This contemporary artwork is painted in oils on canvas, hand signed by the artist and ready to be displayed.
