Charles Ford
The High Line, 16x17x1.5", acrylic on Masonite

2012

About the Item

Charles Ford's work is in the permanent collection of the Museum of the City of New York. Another outstanding painting by Charles Ford that focuses on the High Line in New York City and shows the great lighting and shadows that can be experienced in New York. It is tranquil, yet has the excitement of the city. When viewing this original painting, you get a sensational feeling for the city and the time of day this painting was created by taking in Mr Ford's wonderful use of cast shadows. His "City Paintings" have a very realistic color palette, very true to life. His colors aren't exaggerated and distorted so that they do not become the subject of the canvas, his imagery becomes the subject, and his true to life color and expert technique capture the viewers attention. This painting on Masonite measures 16x17x1.5" and was painted in 2012.

Rigging the Line
By Lynette Cook
Located in Burlingame, CA
The subtle and brilliant work of art is meticulously hand painted by Lynette Cook, who realistically depicts scenes that she sees during her morning walks through the city, yet her paintings tend to reveal more than what initially meets the eye. Exterior facades of urban dwellings that are both architecturally complex — and mundane — are the focus of Cook’s Shadows and Silhouettes series of contemporary photorealistic acrylic paintings that capture San Francisco and other Northern California towns and convey the stories of their inhabitants. The paintings often feature the rhythmic dark-light dance of light traveling through wrought-iron balconies and inner-city fire escapes, and captures that which is universal and connects all people in their elemental desire to create a sense of home. 'Rigging the Line...
