Original oil painting

It’s the quiet hour, before the streets fill and the heat of the day settles in. A carpet seller opens up his shop. The door stands open to the sky, and the rugs are hung and waiting. Brass lanterns, painted bowls and little treasures are set out for the tourists who’ll soon wander past, looking for something to carry home.

I imagine him somewhere warm, perhaps Morocco. In truth he could be anywhere the mornings start slowly and the air already smells of dust and spice. This painting is about that in-between moment: the calm before the bargaining begins.

This painting had its first life on my easel in June 2024. Its next life is with you, in whatever quiet morning you bring to it.
