Ashland Avenue After the Snow Oil on Board 8 x10 $200 (framed)
This scene is from a photo I took in the Pilsen neighborhood of Chicago. I took some liberties with the composition making the building blue-green(it is actually more of a greenish hue in the painting rather than blue in the photo-troubles with taking own photos without proper lighting). I thought making it this color would provide a nice contrast to its compliment of the red and rust which dominates. Additionally the snow picks up the ambient coloring and light.
