Girls Just Wanna Paint

 Boston Skyline

8x10 oil on canvas

SOLD

February's topic for Girls Just Wanna Paint was palette.

I came across some paintings by Paul Klee and I liked the way he broke the subject up in different colors and this is the result.

This is the Boston skyline as seen from I-93 or in local parlance The Southeast Expressway. The tall building is the Prudential Center and I don't know the name of the building with the "crown". I call it the Party Hat building after a review I read on its architecture after it was built. 
It looks quite festive.

Boston Skyline 8x8 Watercolor

This painting is from a photo I took from the roof of the MFA Garage one late summer day. The view from there is glorious as you can see. 
This summer I'm enjoying doing paintings that are a bit different from my usual work. I just completed another painting which needs to be kept under wraps for now, because it is my entry for North River Arts, Outside the Box show. The point of this show is for the artists to do something that won't be recognized as their work. Can't post it until after the silent auction which ends in early September.
I think I'm flying under the radar on this one ;)
FYI, my recent watercolors are in my DPW gallery and I will include a custom mat with each one.
