Sunset over Train Tracks


 After work, with the sun going down, I found this scene looking north west into the Cote St. Luc neighborhood. The sun was setting which created an orange glow and a beam of light cutting through the apartment buildings. In the foreground was the train overpass with several sets of tracks. The painting isn't so much about colour but about composition and values. The angle of the tracks plays well off the angle of the road, and the illuminated face of the building stands out against its grey-brown surroundings.
