The Bay area of Singapore is full of dazzling lights and in this piece, I explored the interaction of purple and yellows in the sky and the buildings, creating an interesting contrast of complementary colors. I also used richer colors to depict the windows of the Marina Bay Sands building and the trees around the area, and this proved to be a great technique that I have discovered recently. The use of cool colors with warm creates visual tension and this adds a unique dimension to this painting.
