More dark than light, the contrast between the two give weight to this painting of the Thames at night called River Lights. The sky is energetic with a dark blue cloud exploding around the orange sky, nestled among the tall buildings. It’s hard to figure out which buildings they are or whether they even matter. What’s clear is the colour of the lights and how they’re reflected in the water. Ripples of vibrant orange, deep blue and indigo, dark greens, lurid reds and yet more yellow. You can’t ignore the yellow! Your eye is then drawn to the foreground and the rail in front of where you’re standing. Clear but dark and melding with the inky Waters.
