A portrait of Coney Island Nathan’s Backyard 24×30 Oil/Linen
Sunday past my friend and colleague, Louise Forester, said, “Your paintings of Coney Island — so powerful and evocative of a special time and place!”

“You love painting portraits of architecture. Why not make this work of Coney Island a theme and paint images from your memories?” I grabbed my brush and off I went. Within this time frame, writing a romance got between my brush and ability to paint and write simultaneously.

This party was a completion celebration of both the paintings and my published book, Indigo Sky. We rounded out the evening with a book- signing and dancing to the musical sounds of the 1960s.
