NYNY #7 is part of the series to do with New York City. This image was done in early spring when the weather was still cold. Most people on the street are wearing black coats and this group assembled makes one big dark shape. In contrast, I put the details in the light shapes.

Coming and Going #65
Coming and Going #65 is part of a series. These works in particular are part of the longest ongoing series I've done. I started these paintings back in 2009 when one day I was walking downtown in the summer. I was struck by the contrast of the white business shirts coming out of the dark shadows.

Reader #67
Reader #67 is part of a series illustrating the female figure reading. I don't hire models or pose people. The subjects I find are random people in their natural environment. Also, note the blue shadow on the book the subject is holding is the same blue as the water in the background, linking the background with foreground.

Reader #66
