A commanding vertical study of Toledo's ancient skyline, this monumental oil painting captures the Spanish city's timeless architectural drama. The composition rises nearly six feet, drawing the eye upward through layers of terracotta rooftops, weathered stone facades, and the city's iconic silhouette against the Castilian sky.
The vertical format emphasizes Toledo's dramatic topography—perched on a granite hill above the Tagus River gorge. Warm ochres and burnt siennas of the historic buildings emerge through gestural mark-making, while cooler atmospheric tones suggest the vast sky above this ancient citadel.
Professionally framed and ready to hang. The substantial scale and vertical orientation make it ideal for entryways, stairwells, or any wall that can accommodate its architectural presence.

Working with flexible metal painting knives, I build textured, impasto surfaces that capture the immediacy and energy of each piece—a record of momentum, material, and mark-making.
