Blue Shadow on Book

  Blue Shadow on Book is part of a series that focuses on the female figure reading.    I spotted this figure reading in a grassy, park type area around Millennium Park in Chicago.   I've been influenced by Elmer Bischoff's work, an artist that I started looking at about a year ago.  Like his work, this image has a figure/background blurred relationship and a dream-like state.

Two Figures on Wabash

  Two Figures on Wabash is part of a series to do with Wabash Avenue here in Chicago.  The street offers much dramatic contrast because of the elevated train above.  I'm always looking to push these works and simplify the image as much as I can.

Couple Crossing Broadway

  Couple Crossing Broadway is part of a series that focuses on the figure in an urban setting.  In most cases, the figures are crossing the street.  The figure in motion contrasts with the static buildings.  In this series I try to explore this relationship further and further. These figures are crossing Broadway on a chilly, but sunny, spring day in NYC.

Downpour in July

  Downpour in July is part of a series of works focusing on the urban landscape.  This scene was from a major downpour that happened last July here in Chicago.  Viewers can relate to rainy cityscapes because the climate can be conveyed very easily. For me, rain, snow, and bright sunshine, work best for cityscapes.

Red Purse on Wabash Avenue

  Red Purse on Wabash Avenue is part of a series of paintings that focus on Wabash Avenue in Chicago.  The overhead elevated train gives the street a unique look.  I started doing these paintings of Wabash Avenue few years ago.  Much to my surprise people from all over,  not just local Chicagoans, where interested in and did purchase these works.
