High Line View with Robot Lady

Oil on linen, 16″ x 20″, 2019

This is a view from the High Line in Chelsea. The focal point of the picture is Robot Lady, part of a larger mural called “Robot Lady of Leisure” by Pixel Pancho. The color theme is mostly complementary blues and oranges, with the orange forming the center and the blues likes spokes on a wheel. In addition to the Robot Lady, there is also the lively billboard for Juban Ramen Sushi in the foreground. On the left, you see a reflection of a woman walking along the High Line. On the right, rather than seeing a reflection , you see into a room, but it’s actually a reference to Edward Hopper’s Night Windows. In the window on the upper right, rather than seeing into the room, we are seeing a cat looking at us.

Here are some other paintings from the High Line.
