Dear Julian, looks like a very happy and productive time was spent in Essaouira, your great talent and the magic of phthalo blue has produced some wonderful and evocative paintings.
Anna.
Julian, I like the way you have visually read into the citadel in the background: a succession of dilated white ligths and geometric brown shadows that suggests the dancing sunny weather over the frontages of the houses...A vaporous effect of the citadel... just your immediate and first visual impression; while you have described more intentionally and meticulously the windows aligning of the building stuck between the boats on the right side: we can here think of the limitless freedom with which an artist sees the world and decides to use it in his (or her) art.
