Painted in New York City (Manhattan) in 2006, this is a close up, section, of the iconic, oft-photographed, bridge, known as Bow Bridge. It was painted in winter, while there was snow on the ground, on the Ramble side of the bridge. The focus is on the trees and the snow that remains on the branches. In the background are the apartment buildings which line Central Park West including the San Remo.

This was painted in January 2008 on Staten Island. I have a good memory of the conditions under which I painted this scene. It was painted in the afternoon and despite the fact that it was winter and snow was on the ground, it was a mild and pleasant day. The painting was done on Ocean Terrace on Staten Island. I wanted to remember the location so I wrote this on the back of the panel once I got home.

Painted three weeks on Turkey Hill Road in Red Hook, NY. Obviously one of the main attractions for me in this painting was the gorgeous display of fall colors with the red to blue-violet hue of the distant mountain acting as the perfect foil to the foreground colors. Aside from this, the sky was also fascinating; one could see into great depths for miles and there was a beautiful hazy violet tone unifying the disparate colors of sky and cloud.

This is a drawing sheet of one and two minute action poses, done on two sides of the paper. It can be matted and framed with the preferred side showing with the knowledge that there are other drawings on the other side, or who knows, it could be framed in such a way to be able to show both, the way you sometimes see artwork with two sides displayed in museums. The drawing was lightly sprayed with fixative.
