Product Description
Night time in Paris was inspired whilst visiting my son in Paris, I took some night time shots . Here, I have attempted to re-create the effects of the street lighting on the scene. It was a new experience trying to create artificial light in a piece, utilising the wool in a very considered way. The dark figures stand out against the brightly lit shops and road, depicting a typical Parisian night scene. I realised in hindsight, that the two figures of mother and child, are symbolic of my love for my son, and the proudness I felt seeing him living independently aged 22 in Paris for 6 months. We spent spent many an hour browsing vintage shops, people watching in cafes, visiting galleries at the weekend. We even managed to go swimming at our apartment , quite a treat. It was such a memorable trip, bonding with my kids and really feeling admiration for my son as we met him from work dressed in his suit, quite the businessman.
