Just added a couple of new paintings to the website. The largest painting’s subject is Prince Street in Soho, it measures 36×48 inches. The view is from the rooftop of the New Museum looking west and shows rooftops across the skyline of downtown Manhattan. The other painting is titled Street Vendor and depicts a pretzel cart on 5th Avenue. This emphasizes more of figurative element to my work. Besides differing in terms of scale (Street Vendor is 16×20 inches, less than half the size) the subjects are also opposites. The cityscape shows the broad, sweeping, dramatic views of the city while the image of the vendor is a more personal view at street level. Two different views, two different experiences of the city.
