Crosstown Traffic (2025) Original Oil Painting by Félix Rubio

50 x 50 x 2cm (unframed) / 50 x 50cm (actual image size)

£545.23

Crosstown Traffic captures the restless energy of a modern city through a vivid, expressive figurative scene. A woman stands at the center of a bustling urban intersection, surrounded by taxis, architecture and movement, her reflective sunglasses mirroring the rhythm of the city around her.

The composition plays with strong contrasts of colour — vibrant yellows, deep blues and luminous turquoise — creating a dynamic atmosphere that evokes the intensity and vitality of metropolitan life.

The painting is executed with bold, visible brushstrokes and rich impasto, allowing the texture of the oil paint to remain present on the surface. These energetic marks give the work a tactile quality and enhance the sense of motion within the scene, while also revealing the physical process of painting.

Through expressive colour, textured paint and gestural brushwork, the work explores the sensation of moving through a crowded city while remaining momentarily suspended in one's own inner world.
