I rode my bike to 5th Ave and neglected to check the weather, so naturally a thunderstorm was there to greet me. I retreated to a nearby bar to wait out the storm over a beer. When the rain cleared, I set up my easel and gave it a shot. It was a total disaster. Lesson learned, I guess. I took that painting back to the studio and looked at it for a while before deciding to give the subject another go. This piece is the result. I wanted to highlight all the people around the area and how the sunlight bangs off the museum. On the street I made it far too dark and overshot the light. I find there's a lot more control in the studio, so I was able to hone in on those aspects there. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 14\" x 20\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePaper:\u003c\/b\u003e Saunders Waterford 140lb rough\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eDate Completed:\u003c\/b\u003e 2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis painting ships unframed in a heavy-duty tube with insurance to ensure maximum safety.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eI offer custom framing for clients who can pick up locally in New York City.
