About the Item

One of the tallest buildings in Brooklyn was The Williamsburg Savings Bank. I was always fond of this beautiful bank adorned in blue and multi colored tiles in it's lavish hallway. In Brooklyn 1990, we see the bank on the left and some buildings on the right. They made the perfect backdrop to the spectacular skies we have in Brooklyn. As the sun drops below the horizon, it's reflection is caught in the clouds that are hovering over the final moments of daylight. The brilliant orange clouds take us to a different level as they illuminate in symphony with a blue and yellow sky. The advantage of making my own oil paints is that I select the finest pigments that play a major role in scenes like Brooklyn 1990. Indeed, the beauty of using pigments is to attain a freshness of color that translates onto the canvas. This was the view from my studio for 30 years. Then the developers found us and they changed the horizon of downtown Brooklyn. This view no longer exists. Brooklyn 1990, 20 x 16 x 1.5 inches, oil on canvas, 2024

The Golden Echo NYC
By Tom Irizarry Studio
Located in Booklyn, NY
In this sunset picture of New York City, the artist reaches deep within himself to match the heartfelt colors of a glorious glimmering sky bathing in sweet deep warm rays of brilliant yellow echoing its golden cry across the heavens, capturing groups of clouds while hoovering over the magnificent city of New York whose cold structures succumb to redemptive reflections of glory beyond our dreams, echoing never ending warm light that radiates the soul and takes us to a place reminiscent of one of the greatest cities of all time, The New Jerusalem...
