"A Tree in Brooklyn" modern, contemporary cityscape


"A Tree in Brooklyn" c2007



This painting, as those of you who follow my work is not something you might normally associate with my style. This piece began with several layers of background color, then the metallic "buildings", and in the foreground a stark, black tree stakes his claim in this metropolis.


I love it. I love the subtle shimmer of the metallic glazes behind the strong lines of the tree.


It is 24x24 on deep gallery wrapped edges, and is up for auction with no reserve.
