Glimmers is a beautifully tranquil scene, a moment of calm amidst the hustle of city life. The canal in Manchester, on a sunny day, has a peaceful, reflective quality that contrasts with the usual pace of the city. The title Glimmers evokes the idea of light catching on the water, maybe creating soft reflections or subtle flashes of color as the sun hits the surface. The serenity of the scene, coupled with the stillness, makes it feel like a pause—a rare, quiet moment where time slows down.
In a bustling city like Manchester, moments like these are often fleeting, and this painting captures that feeling of escape, even if just for a few minutes, where you can pause, breathe, and take in the beauty of nature and light.
