I haven't been idle this summer; I am just working much larger to prepare for an exhibit in October. The painting, Twilight, is one of two large paintings that I have completed. It measures 30"x40". I have done this scene several times, and yes, it is really that intense . I contrasted the sky with the buildings in the forground. This used to be the Main Post Office, but now the IRS is there, together with the other buildings. There is no symbolism. The view is from our west window, and just wanted to try it again.
