Description
"Still Under Constructions"________
The Original Painting is 24x36 inches painted on stretched canvas. The Title, "Still Under Construction" was supposed to be 'my cue' to continue painting. However, I decided to STOP right where it is! There are so many paintings of Boston's busy streets with traffic (cars, taxis,trucks, etc.). I've had this hanging in my home for almost two years and have received many compliments regarding the UNCLUTTERED, CLEAN look. Instead of 'over-working' this painting, I decided to (if you may) 'under-work it'! It has a strong, architectural element to it. On the left is the Old John Hancock Tower..behind it you can see the NEW Hancock Tower that is 'mirrored', which reflects the sky and buildings around it. There's a Post Office on the right corner, and many shops, businesses, and restaurants on the street. The Old John Hancock Tower has a light on the very top, and radio broadcasters daily announce the weather, i.e. Blue - Clear Weather, Red - Unsettled, stormy, rain, etc.

Thanks, Sergey! Your photography is simply WONDERFUL...I love Cats and Dogs and nature. You probably read the story re: "Still Under Construction". I never finished it! It was bought by a television series in the USA. My Mom (whom I lost almost 5 yrs. ago) last saw it as it is. I painted "Still Under Construction" with a reminded that it will be finished. It won't be...'It Is"! Want to leave it as she last saw it. There would have been trees lined on both sides of the street and more street lights, and, of course, vehicles...many! Wishing you a SAFE and Blessed New Year!
