Artist Statement
The Empire State Building is an icon of continual fascination and mystery. In this recent series, each painting is made in one evening from direct observation. I love the fact that I can paint the same thing every night, and every night it is different. The colors of the building lights change frequently and the weather and the color of night are never the same. I look for opportunities to take subtle formal variations. Lately, I have been photographing the finished painting and posting it instantly on Facebook, sharing my experience in real time with friends around the globe.
