I'M NOT AS THINK AS YOU DRUNK I AMOctober 12, 2019 at 11:18 pm #894326Thanks so much Michael. Usually I am disappointed with what I have painted but I kind of like this one….

October 13, 2019 at 3:45 am #894332Its excellent, Wes! I know you like your cityscapes, so you must have enjoyed painting this and you deserve to be very pleased with the result. The sky, perspective, cars and the colours in the pavement are super.

October 13, 2019 at 11:10 am #894322Cool! Nice job simplifying the extreme complexity of the cityscape, I love the composition and that backlit monument, and great job on all the little details, too. Not an easy subject, but you nailed it!

October 16, 2019 at 9:44 am #894321Lovely work Wes that sky is a dream and the use of colour in your painting really goes so well to let the sky tell a story. Not an easy work to do yet you have done a great job!

What is the tall statue?October 16, 2019 at 5:15 pm #894331Thanks so much Caroline!
Thanks Jon! The statue is the “Soldiers and Sailors” monument that is downtown Cleveland public square. It is a Civil War monument. It was difficult to make out the figure with the angle from the side and the way it was backlit.
