"Wall Street"

6 x 6"

I'm winding up the alphabet series, with W for Wall Street - smack dab in the center of the trading floor of the New York Stock Exchange. What an experience it was to watch and photograph this place - constant motion, frenzied activity starting as soon as that bell dings - then it all calms down as hundreds of men (and a few women) have done what they came to do, with nothing left but paper strewn all over the floor and discussions of what's for lunch are heard throughout the massive room. Awesome place.

"Curb Appeal"

16 x 8"

I'm finally getting around to taking some photographs of the work I've been doing for my upcoming show. Here's one I really love. I cannot tell you how much fun I had painting these people - all so unique. My view was from the rooftop of a tour bus, this was a group of people at a crosswalk a couple of blocks south of Wall Street. It was a glary, bright, sunny morning - giving me those great shadows and color. Hope you enjoy this one.
