Sunset at Torre Santa Elena, La Azohia, Cartagena, Spain - PaKart

A square stone watchtower stands on a rocky headland above the sea, lit from behind by a low sun. The sky runs from pale gold to deep violet over a dark line of mountains, and the slope in front is worked up in thick dabs of green, ochre and pink. The water lies flat and pale between them.

Painted in acrylic on canvas, the ground and the vegetation built up in thick broken strokes while the sky is laid on smooth and wide. PaKart was trained by the Irish painter Alan Ardies and now paints local scenes on the coast of Murcia in south-east Spain. Available as a poster or fine art canvas print in multiple sizes.
