Carey Parks
A Cold Day in the City, Original Painting

2023

About the Item

Artist Comments
Artist Carey Parks illustrates a crowd of pedestrians crossing the street. She captures the image on a bright and sunny but cold Saturday in New York City. "The high contrast and patterns made by the cast shadows are what inspired me to paint this on canvas," shares Carey. The piercing interplay of light and shadow on the crosswalk creates a compelling contrast.


About the Artist
Carey Parks recreates the nostalgia of a family album in her familiar scenes. Some of her works actually take inspiration from her own photographs and places she has visited. She also creates up-close portraits and colorful landscapes. She frequently mixes paint directly on the canvas to create interesting color mixtures.
