It's A Wonderful Town

This is my entry into this week's Different Strokes From Different Folks challenge. I was just in NYC last week so I was really looking forward to painting this one. I love New York. It is truly a wonderful town. That's why in my painting the sky is a beautiful blue. I found painting the taxis came quickly, the buildings...well I sruggled a bit with those. Getting straight enough lines with the palette knife is a bit difficult. You can check out Karin's reference photo here.
I love your sky too and your taxis are very good. New York is a great city, I agree. I lived there 12 years. NIce entry for DSFDF. I sent in mine, under the wire !
ReplyDeleteHow nice to have the memory fresh! You did a great job with this challenge!
ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful! You've captured the sense of busyness and activity of such a street scene with your colors and brush strokes.
ReplyDeleteJust great! Love your thick paint.
