Rail-way Crossing

Andrew Manson’s "Rail-way Crossing" captures a fleeting moment of urban transit, where daily life and movement intersect. A motorcyclist and a cyclist wait at the crossing as the green DART train passes, creating a dynamic yet familiar scene of pause and transition. The artist’s rich textures and expressive brushwork add a cinematic quality, evoking themes of journey, time, and anticipation.

The careful balance of warm earth tones and cool greens creates contrast, while the layered perspective draws the viewer into the scene, making them part of this everyday yet compelling urban moment.
