Oil on board

Influence: Impressionism.
Still following the theme of cool reduced colour pallet – predominantly green. Black not used.
High key high contrast.
Not an impression like landscape 1, as the finished layers of textured paint gives more definition to the light areas.
Realistic representation of Beirut, cool colour depicts Beirut in 1993.
Varied brush strokes, even used the back end of the brush to scratch lines into paint.
