About the Item
'January Light' depicts an historic San Francisco home with warm sunlight and shadows cascading across the window pane. 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. 'January Light' is 12 x 16 inches. A mesmerizing work with multiple layers to contemplate and which shares another tale of city life.
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.
'January Light' is 12 x 16 inches. Hand painted in 2012. An original acrylic on panel painting. Condition is excellent. Signed, dated and titled by artist. At Andra Norris Gallery in Burlingame, CA.

Lynette Cook
