High Line – Looking West
Oil on linen, 12″ x 9″, 2021, private collection
.
The setting is the High Line, above West 22nd Street, on a chilly October afternoon. A woman sits on a bench looking west, toward the Hudson River. I was particularly interested in the design of the gray High Line wall and the light and shadows. The composition is dominated by the receding diagonals on the right.
Here are some other paintings from the High Line.
