Acrylics on board, 30 x 20 cm:
We tend to associate aloes with the tropics. But here in my corner of the world they bloom in winter, so they often make me think of cold, gloomy days. I took the reference photo on which I somewhat loosely based this picture just a few blocks from where I live. It was a bright, crisp day, but when I painted it the weather was rather gloomy and overcast, and this slipped into the painting, I think.
