Tom Irizarry Studio
Brooklyn Blaze 1986

2024

About the Item

Back in the day, the glorious 1980's was a time of unequaled freedom, that we once took for granted. This picture captures the sky ablaze of a hot summer day - sunset over Downtown Brooklyn painted in genuine natural vermillion and mineral orange. Detail images show my palette made from a variety of historic and natural mineral pigments. The carnelian ring photo is a good example of the beauty of minerals, though carnelian is not used as a pigment, it's properties are similar to mineral pigments. The colors and content capture the passion of the 80's in NYC, a time of flourishing new music and art and a great time to be in NY. The buildings in these paintings are specific and few. This was the Downtown Brooklyn skyscape of the 1980's. It was my view for over 30 years, until the development and towers came. Brooklyn Blaze 1986 captures the changes that were to come and memorializes this scene in a painting. It holds a special place in my heart. oil on canvas, 20 x 30 x 1.5 inches, 2024.
