This large-scale painting, entitled Autumn<\/em>, represents change and reflection \u2014 a season of rich colour, harvest, and transition, where nature slows and prepares for rest. London artist Will Foster created a series of 6 paintings for the hotel Lift Lobbies, inspired by the color symphony of a garden\u2019s changing seasons. Each painting captures the rhythmic energy and fluid transitions of both nature and sound, creating a dynamic visual experience. The artist was inspired by expressive abstract works by 20th century painter Joan Mitchell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the opposite wall, a smaller painting by Scottish artist Kim Scouller features a portrait of the famous classical musician George Bridgetower, one of the historic characters featured at the hotel. Kim Scouller\u2019s portraits aim to inhabit a feeling of the depicted characters through bold colour and lively brushwork. Quiet reflection is channelled into bold painterly brushstokes, giving pause to examine and process the subject, recording it in paint.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
