Carriage Ride in Central Park
Original Painting - Acrylic on Canvas 16x20
Outside the Plaza Hotel and Central Park
in Manhattan you'll find one of New
York City's favorite attractions - Carriage Rides in Central
Park! Carriages, traditionally called "Hansom Cabs", are
fun, romantic and create lasting images and lifelong memories. The horse-drawn
carriage rides have been part of Central Park for more
than a century. I wanted the painting to be somewhat timeless so that it had
that nostalgic feel I was after. There is currently a move by some, and
supported by the Mayor of New York City, to ban carriage rides and replace them
with electric cars. They claim that it is cruel to the horses. The opposing
side says they love their horses and that they are well-fed and cared for
better than many people in New York.
Some say it’s all about the money …could be true.

This iconic bridge in central park has delighted visitors from around the world. The backdrop of New York City with lights gleaming is a pleasure to paint and I have painted it numerous times.

Old Water Tower Milwaukee
Original Painting - Acrylic on Canvas 20x16
Milwaukee's old North Point Water Tower is this years choice for my annual holiday painting. I can remember riding past the tower as a youngster. I always thought it looked like a storybook castle...I still do. In the 60's it was often used for war protests and other rallies. The eastside location and proximity to the University of Wisconsin contributed to the popularity of the site for gatherings. This historic Milwaukee landmark was built in 1874.

Nor'easter in New York city
Original Painting - Acrylic on canvas 20x16
"Suckerpunch Nor’easter adds to the misery of Super Storm Sandy victims." – Baltimore Sun Blog
“God hates us!” the New York Post said in a front-page headline.
These are the headlines regarding the Northeaster of November 2012. I wanted to capture the atmosphere of the unexpected snow blanketing the city of New York and see the beauty even in an ugly weather event.
