Rhythms of the Clyde

In this expressive piece, "Rhythms of the Clyde," I pay homage to Glasgow's lifeline, the River Clyde. Reflecting on the dramatic transformation from its industrial past to its current state adorned with museums, walkways, and vibrant commerce, I draw a parallel to Van Gogh’s "Starry Night over the Rhone."

Executed in the same city and month as his "Café Terrace at Night," Van Gogh’s masterpiece captures the allure and significance of the Rhone at night. Similarly, the Clyde, a vital artery for Glasgow’s growth, serves as my muse.

I have depicted the river’s serene beauty and the bustling energy of the city it nurtures, mirroring the old with the new. This painting embodies the profound connection between Glasgow and its river, celebrating the essence of "Glas Gogh."
