sad manikin

here is another in the short series of paintings based on Newcastle bridges, a view I see when on my bike and rounding the last bend. It had a boring blue sky so I brightened it up, not everyone likes the orange but I do. Not quite sure about the reflections- I need to practice. I saw this mainikin standing there looking depressed or perhaps he's in the naughty corner.
while here is a manikin looking art a painting held by its own shadow! surreal or what?
