This oil on canvas painting of a street scene
in Casares, Spain was painted while Leif Nilsson was in Spain
on a painting trip in the month of March, 2000. He spent a week
in the "white washed hilltop village" painting the beautiful
landscape of the town. Most of the works of art done on this trip
were painted on small canvases. All of them were painted directly
on sight, en-plein air. This painting is framed in a hand made,
finished corner metal leafed frame made in Chester by Leif Nilsson.
It is signed and dated on the back and was made specifically for
this painting. This detail image of the painting truthfully reveals
and describes the texture and color of the brushwork and shows
the doorway leading up from the street into the house. The street
is named Calle Monte and this view was of the house next door
to where Leif was staying.
