Reader #76



  Reader #76 is part of a series.  All the paintings in this series depicts the female figure reading in some form.  The figure in this painting was reading during her lunch break.  The location is an area between two large office buildings which is made up entirely of concrete.  You wouldn't be able to tell it by this painting, but on a nice day as many as 100 people gather in this area during lunch.

NYNY #13


 NYNY #13 is part of a series of paintings to do with New York City.  These pedestrians had just arrived at Grand Central Station and were heading off to work on a chilly spring morning.   Our eyes are trained to study someone's more than, say, a building or car.  Therefore, I downplay all the details in the face of figures to keep them from being the focal point.

Reader #73


 Reader #73 is part of a series.  All the paintings in the series show the female figure reading in some form or another.  I'm always trying to inject as much energy into a painting as I possibly can.  While at the same time, trying to keep a certain amount of the representational.
