Agadir (diptych)

Agadir (diptych) is part of my Marrakesh series focusing on the iconic colours and patterns of this ancient city in Morocco. I have mixed a variety of desert colours for use in these paintings: ochres, terracotta’s, pinks, and browns, plus a selection of oxide, to create the effect of moving through this unique landscape.

This artwork consists of 2 paintings each with the dimensions 92cm W x 122cm H.
It was recently featured in the Grand Designs magazine.
