"California Street, Late Afternoon"


8x10" oil on canvas panel

Less is definitely more. I used to attempt to paint every car when doing cityscapes. I was never happy with the result. I ended up avoiding the subject for quite a while. I'm still working on developing my visual shorthand but I feel like I'm getting a lot closer to what I'm after.

Michael, Great and refreshing work.
they have a wonderful controlled spontaneity to them, hard to do and you do it with ease...
