Red Hook – in the Rain
Oil on canvas, 10″ x 8″, 2017, Private collection
This painting was inspired by Red Hook on a rainy day. The scene is from a window on the second floor looking down (actually from BWAC, Brooklyn Waterfront Artists Coalition). I was interested in how the bright blue umbrella contrasted the muted grays. In the background, breaking up the distance is the Red Hook pier and Statue of Liberty.
