This painting originates from a photograph taken around midday in October. My primary aim was to capture the quality of the autumn sunshine filtering through a slight atmospheric haze, almost a hint of fog. When depicting London views, comparisons to Monet inevitably come to mind, particularly regarding his treatment of atmosphere and light. While not attempting a direct homage, my focus, like his, is very much on the atmosphere and color. What became most important for me here was conveying the impressionistic feeling of Millbank and Vauxhall Bridge. Above all, I was drawn to the beautiful arrangement of colors in the sky. It could have been a very dull day, yet hints of color were shimmering through the haze. In applying the paint, I worked in patches, allowing colors to blend harmoniously but carefully ensuring this blending wasn't uniform across the entire piece. Over-blending would have merged everything into a muddied effect. Instead, I wanted to retain the integrity of each color within its area, allowing them to vibrate against one another. This technique maintains the essence and vibrancy of each individual hue; without it, the picture would have been significantly duller.
