About the Item

This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. Unframed size 30x30cm Bathed in reflections and soft, rainy haze, Evening Shower, Paris is a romantic ode to the city’s timeless charm. David Farren uses oil paint to render a Parisian boulevard shimmering with wet pavements and golden light spilling from a café awning. Dashes of red umbrellas and streaks of yellow evoke a cinematic pulse, while tree-lined streets stretch into mist, suggesting the hum of twilight footsteps. Farren’s brushwork is loose yet exacting, capturing the fluidity of rain-soaked scenes without sacrificing architectural clarity. The cool lilacs and greys meet the warmth of amber highlights in a dynamic play of contrasts, suggesting a city alive with quiet elegance. Reflections dance on the surface like memories held in motion. Evening Shower, Paris is a painting of fleeting enchantment, inviting us into a world where rain becomes poetry and everyday corners feel newly illuminated. This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. Artist biography: David Farren is a modern impressionist painter of street scenes and landscapes, concentrating on the effects of light. David was born in Wiltshire and gained a reputation as a modern impressionist, using open brushwork and colour to represent the energy and movement of the landscape. He is fascinated by the changing light within a scene and how it determines the mood of a place at a particular time – be it a busy New York street or a quiet corner of France. The Artist States: “The painting process begins with finding inspiration -walking the streets of New York or London with my sketchbook and camera, looking for interesting light and compositions. I’m often up before dawn so I can be in location for sunrise when there’s a strong contrast between the warmth of the sun, lighting up the edges of figures and cars, and the long cool shadows. I then take all the ideas and information back to my garden studio where I work from the sketches to create the finished painting” David is currently working at his studio in South of France and exhibiting widely in leading galleries across the country. His paintings are held in private collections in the UK, France, USA and Ireland.

"Paris Rainy Cafe" by Christopher Clark, Original Oil Painting, French Cityscape
By Christopher Clark
Located in Denver, CO
Christopher Clark's "Paris Rainy Cafe" is an original, hand made oil and acrylic painting that depicts a night scene of a bustling cityscape in France. Christopher has been an artist since early childhood, when he would watch Bob Ross on PBS and mimic the famed oil painter’s art with crayons. He considers himself a self-educated artist, with his studies ranging from personal training with contemporary masters, to classical academic art technique, with much inspiration from 19th Century art and the Impressionist Movement. Christopher lived in Italy for a time, immersing himself in Italian culture and art, which continues to influence his painting. His fan base has grown considerably since his return to the US, gaining the attention of Lucasfilm and Marvel Fine Art, which both signed him as an officially licensed artist in 2016. Other clients include George Lucas, Major League Baseball, Louisville Slugger, and Fender Guitars. Christopher’s painting skills are not his only talent in the arts. He has won several national swing dance championship competitions, and also studies tango and blues dancing. He has played guitar since the age of 12, and during his time as lead guitarist for a rock band, he opened for Blue Oyster Cult and Eddie Money...
