Oil On Canvas
20 x 30"
I just finished these three moderately large oil paintings of New York City.
Although they're each separate and not a triptych as such, they were conceived together.
Each of them is five by three feet square. They'll be at O'Connor Gallery in Gananoque, Ontario.

I'm going to be giving a talk about 'Life's Changes In Art', at O'Connor Gallery, Gananoque, on Sunday, September 22, 2024 at 1pm.
My talk will be about my experiences with art and working as an artist through the years - from what got me into it, through academic influences, into finally hitting my stride, then the changes and situations that have followed that. I'm looking forward to seeing you there!
Thanks to Dennis O'Connor for asking me, plus a thankyou to the Gananoque Arts Network and Ontario Culture Days organizations.
I love doing copies of works I admire. It's a great way to see yourself into them, to discover things like feelings, symbols, colours and approaches one might otherwise miss. There's always a bit of folly in doing such a thing, but I hope that the tribute is more present.
This one is slow. Somewhere between an assemblage of parts and actual painting.
