Artist's Statement:
My ongoing New York by Night Series of oil paintings on canvas were inspired by the romantic luminous paintings of the nineteenth century American painter, Albert Pinkham Ryder, and by the paintings of Cuban-New Yorker, Gustavo Ojeda, who painted the New York nightscape in the nineteen eighties.
Inspired by Ryder's moonlit marines and the gritty transcendentalism of the New York paintings of Ojeda, I began the New York by Night - Moonlights and Nocturnes, drawn to the beauty and mystery where radiance and darkness meet.
