This painting was started in late 2018 and worked on through March 2019. There were several days it was overcast, frigid, and windy so progress was slow. I was first inclined to paint here early on in June as I admired the view of 21C, the building with arched windows on the upper stories that is barely visible now due to the new construction. I waited too long to return and this is what was visible at the time. However, I also find this incredibly engaging.

I knew it was time to wrap this painting up when they completed hanging the first row of the glass facade. I tried very hard to capture the ever changing color relationships as dusk raced over the skyline .. this painting for me is all about that fleeting, transitional light.
