The glowing light from shop windows flickering on wet paving, the rain trickling down umbrellas as couples pass intimately bodies close together.
The small size of the painting increases the feeling of intimacy, the little private world.
Although I painted this in Brittany where I live it is actually influenced by an evening walk some years ago in the centre of Dublin, the shop lighting creating a multitude of different colours that shimmered in the evening darkness.
Since that moment I have frequently found similar subjects that capture my attention.
