More Work on Rainy NYC Scene

I'm struggling a bit ... but wanted to get a quick post (really quick) before heading off to a special party this evening.

In between house hunting and negotiating I've been working on this painting "Five Umbrellas" as well as the Great Falls Farmer's Market scene, il Gatto, etc. Just can't seem to finish anything at the moment.

I am preparing for my solo show at the Old Brogue Irish Pub in Great Falls coming July 1. "Painting the Town" is the theme with street and market scenes from close to home (Great Falls, Virginia) as well as Easton, MD, New York City, and Florence, Venice and Rome, Italy. Hopefully "Five Umbrellas" will be one of the 12 or so paintings in the show.

Lots to do!

A reception is planned for Sunday, July 25, 2 to 5pm. Save the date!
