Liz on NYC street

I painted this painting of my neice Elizabeth who recently moved to NYC!  She and her sister are both great photographers with an edgy style I love.  I loved this shot that her sister Catherine took of her lens flair and all!  Shooting towards the sun can create some cool effects.  I wanted to keep this loose, show the cool sunlight and shadows and hint at the architecture and perspective without describing too much.

24x30, oil on canvas, SOLD
