Back at a favorite spot today- under the 1 train at 215th street in Inwood. Many things I love about this corner- old New York, big shapes and light/shadow patterns. 8x10 on linen, available, link in bio  #paintingsofinwood #paintingsofnewyork #newyorkcityscapepaintings #nycpaintings #newyorkcityscapepainter #newyorkpaintings #elevatedsubways #215thstreetststation #oldnycsubway
Here’s an oldie, with a story. I painted it from under the 1 train on 10th Avenue, soon after we moved back to New York in 2013. For some reason I was self conscious about setting up behind my easel there. I wanted to be inconspicuous. So I sat on the ground under a streetlamp. I learned that while it can be done, the ground gets really cold and it’s really awkward to try to hold a large-ish canvas between your knees and not get paint all over yourself. I’ve always enjoyed thinking about it when I look at it. I’m sending it off today, hopefully the new owners will find the back-story amusing. Also, now when I set up at night I always use an easel. 16x20 oil on canvas #newyorknocturne #nycnocturne #Cityscapenocturne #nocturnepainting #nycnightpainting #newyorkrealism #newyorkcityscapepainting #paintingsofnyc#newyorknightscene #nightcityscapepainting #nightpaintings #paintingsofinwood#classicnyc#pleinairpaintings #pleinairnightscenes #elevatedsubways
