In Outdoor Market, I emphasized the sun shining down on this busy market scene. Good paintings should be unified; they should have a sense of oneness. This busy scene is united by the dark colors which link together. If you squint, you see the dark colors connecting. I used brush strokes to convey the busy scene & moved the viewer through the painting with the diagonal line of the boxes & the similarity of colors, i.e. the red.
