'Stasis', 2024

We're viewing an apartment complex on Denby Street, Sheffield, during one of the lockdowns of 2020. The glow in the sky is from Bramall Lane, football stadium.

This painting portrays a quiet night time city scene. A single streetlamp lights up a street corner, casting its white LED glow on the tall buildings with numerous windows, some of which are illuminated. The sky is a dark, muted orange, reflecting lights from Bramall Lane against the clouds. The empty street appears wet and reflective, adding to the sense of solitude and stillness. The overall atmosphere is moody and slightly eerie, capturing the tranquil silence of the city at night. The use of light and shadow enhances the textures and details of the buildings and the street.
