I use the trees and shadows to soften the building, to frame the building. I use light and shadows to give the structure some life. Even though the buildings are cold and stiff, you have to treat them like people, like your friends. When I paint a building, I try to bring out its personality, its spirit. It's almost like painting a portrait.
Every building is different.
Every building has a purpose. The buildings are a part of our lives and we should respect them.
