ENVIRONMENT: Visual Research

I came across the British painter Susan Brown while I was looking for visual references for my Environment concept. The reason her paintings seemed interesting to me is while they are of both modern an historical buildings, whenever she paints buildings with history she puts them in a modern context, for example:

Both the paintings feature buildings that are not particularly modern and yet she hasn't kept the historical context but has painted the traffic lights in front of  one building and immersed the other   in crowds of people with modern clothing. Reminding  us of the changing architecture around us and for me, making me think of how important it is not to lose that history with the changing of the world and the arrival of new things. The history of the world makes it what it is today.
