Waiting at Grand Central
Oil on canvas
24x18 inches
Several months ago, while waiting for a friend to arrive, I took photos and subsequently created a painting featuring the chandeliers and reflections in the waiting area of Grand Central Terminal. I was so taken by this subject that I decided to create another painting, a variation this time including some of the people waiting on line. The contrast between the ornate interior and the everyday travelers, waiting and most checking their phones, is common sight and I choose to paint these scenes as I find beauty in everyday surroundings.
