I like your use of 'time of day'..seems to run thru all your paintings - it's an evident theme. Very nice

Ah Simon Jones, always wait with baited breath to see what you're going to post, and you never disappoint! Beautiful light and shadow.

Hi Rahina, well the wall is my favourite bit, maybe I should have done just the wall. Reminds me a bit of old Ladybird kids books, I used to read so much into the illustrations, like gosh is that how kids in big citys really behave and think?

Hi Tatiana, yes I got through a few night views, but I seem to come back to evening "golden light".It is a very special specific light that seems to connect different places and events together, kind of like a portal.

Simon, this reminds me a lot of Hopper's night paintings. To me it is more street lamp light falling on the wall rather than sunset but that doesn't matter. It is the mood which is important and you have captured that well.

I love this one - great mood acheived here Simon.

Very nice. Great light--a bit eerie.

Hi Sheila thanks, shucks yes I am still stuck on Hopper.
