Downtown Chicago

Original Painting - Acrylic on canvas 40x30
Flashing lights, city traffic, pedestrians and noise are all part of the urban scene as the denizens of the concrete jungle prowl the streets.

Moon Over Third Street

Original Painting - Acrylic on canvas 20x16
I painted this as a companion piece to "Street Life". I had so much fun painting the seedy section of town teeming with life and vitality, that I was compelled to paint it again. I added the guys with the basketball for my grandson Joey because he's a dedicated basketball player and he really liked the last painting.

Street Life

Original Painting - Acrylic on canvas 24x20
This painting of a city street is completely imaginary but representative of any older run-down neighborhood in any major city such as New York, Detroit, Chicago, or Milwaukee. People are outside on the street to escape the heat of a summer night. Graffiti painted walls are the backdrop for a police stop gathering onlookers.The old brownstones lean together remembering a grander and more genteel time and place as hip hop music blares and sirens wail in the distance.  night city art
