Walnut Street Twilight Beige and this crosswalk moment in

and this crosswalk moment in midtown Manhattan is no exception

I enjoy visiting the park during summer evenings because there are some wonderful vantage points to enjoy sunsets like this

there are huge boulders where I can sit and enjoy a picnic lunch while soaking in this refreshing view

and I didn't have to make any compositional changes

Walnut Street Twilight Beige and this crosswalk moment inA mild afternoon gives way to early evening looking east along Walnut Street in Center City Philadelphia. The whole catalyst for this painting was the subtle gradation of pinks, purples, and blues in the sky behind the tall buildings, punctuated by manmade lights below. I love it when Mother Nature and mankind harmonize.
