Last Light, Ruwi Oman Original watercolour Painting | Paintings of Muscat – Alan Reed
Gulf Art
My studio watercolour Paintings of Ruwi in Oman is the result of spending many hours making sketchbook studies on location in Oman.
I’ve often risen when it was still dark to make sure I was in the right spot to capture the early morning light, however on this occasion it was a case of being in the right place to record the last throws of the middle eastern sunlight catching the distant hills. Read more on the Blog

Ruwi Oman
Some 3km inland from Muttrah lies RUWI. The commercial heart of the city of Muscat. It’s relatively small beer compared to other urban areas around the Gulf. If you’ve spent long in the quieter backwaters of Oman the district’s blaze of neon, high(ish)-rise buildings. And commercial hustle and bustle can come as something of a surprise, especially after dark. This is when the whole place has a real urban buzz. One of the few places in Muscat where you get a genuine sense of being in the capital city of a sizeable country.
Paintings of Ruwi can be seen at Alan Reed Art Gallery in Ponteland Newcastle upon Tyne. We have a large collection of Gulf Art including Original Watercolours and Limited Edition Prints.
