"Sunset in NYC" ... Probably Done

"Sunset in NYC," oil, 24"h x 36"w, ©Jill Banks 2012


My photo's not the best ... taken at night, no tripod, etc. ... but I believe this one, started in my hotel room shower in Soho, is now finished. When it's hung in my upcoming solo show, I hope it finds a spot where the sun touches it at dusk. It's crazy what happens to this painting that time of day.

This weekend will find me at the Great Falls Studios Art Fair, Saturday and Sunday from 10am to 5pm. There I'll join 20 other artists inside the Village Green Day School, 790 Walker Road, Great Falls, VA. The booth is being set up in our family room in anticipation. The house is torn up from floor to ceiling. Funny how a solo show and art fair can do that to a place.

I hope to see you there! (At the Art Fair.)
