SEMPER FI
Semper Fi is now finished. This picture was taken during the protest of the proposed mosque at the foot of the World Trade Center in NYC.

I’m in the final stages of the a painting. This is where “the rubber meets the road” and the paint meets the paper.
In this stage, the intricate details come into play and will either make or break the painting.
The reflections of the cars are like jewels and offset the massive overpass, creating a delicate balance.

Tranquil Pasture
“Tranquil Pasture” intrigued me because of its simplicity and serenity especially now that we are in the throws of a harsh winter. I wouldn’t mind being out there now!
This particular painting was done on a board with several overlays of color to get the foreground grass to have depth. It was all about the quality of the foreground grass areas, and especially how the sunlight hit the tree and grassy field in order to convey a sense of light and airy space to produced a Tranquil Pasture.
On The Town
It was very exciting to capture the energy of Times Square with the graphic intensity of the advertisements impacting on the people. It was especially interesting to me growing up in New York and always being part of the Times Square experience and how it has changed through the years.
