Leaning Houses at Dusk
Oil on canvas · Expressionism
A row of weathered urban buildings tilts and presses into one another, their facades fractured by balconies, awnings, windows, and a thicket of utility poles. Loose, assertive brushwork gives the street a restless geometry, with diagonal lines and skewed perspectives making the block feel unstable yet vividly alive. Warm ochres, brick reds, and dusty mauves are pushed against pale, hazy light, suggesting late afternoon or a sky heavy with heat. The work feels observed from life but filtered through expressive distortion, turning an ordinary neighborhood corner into something intimate, slightly precarious, and deeply atmospheric.
