Main Nocturne, oil on panel, 24 x 24 inches, work in progress copyright ©2017

Main Nocturne is another work in progress, and represents the view from Division Street looking west on Main Avenue. I'm working on bass wood panel, and at first put a thin imprimatura of gray-red and gray-blue, and will work the painting up from there. In some ways this is a revisiting of Night And The City, a nocturne of Riverside Avenue. Whereas Night… was more garish and neon filled, Nocturne is more subtle.
