Plaza de la Constitución, Mijas

Mijas, Spain, 15" x 11"

The Plaza de la Constitución in Mijas - a spacious square in amongst the narrow streets of this pretty hillside town on the Costa del Sol.  Done with my 3-colour palette and quite a simple composition with the corner of the square, looking into the sunlight and the palm tree almost mirror-imaged in its own shadow.   The major fronds point towards the figures in the street.  Very loose detailing of the windows on the buildings.

Painted on Saunders Waterford, Cold Press, 300 gms.
