Meditation Series: (6/8) The Palladium (1989)
I emphasized the physical properties of the building in this sketch of The Palladium, which used to be on 14th Street in NYC. As opposed to stressing the mural in yesterday’s post. One can see the air conditioners and the openings for vents, rudely marring the mural’s surface. Please visit my Etsy shop for my artwork […]
Meditation Series: (4/8) The Palladium, NYC (1989)
This variation was drawn with water soluble ink pens and washed with water. I like the way the ink spreads out and merges with other colors.

Meditation Series: (3/8) The Palladium, NYC (1989)
I began this sketch with the idea of using complimentary colors for the mural on the Palladium building. I used the lines defining the spotlights as dividers for a patchwork of colors.

Meditation Series: (2/8) The Palladium, NYC (1989)
Although my reference photograph is in black and white, I filled in some of the colors for the mural. I used a photo from the internet as a guide. It was a bit older than photo I used, since there were more air conditioners poking out of the mural in my version. Please visit my […]

Meditation Series: (4/8) Downtown LA Cityscape (2021)
These are some of the most important elements of the city scape I photographed back in ’21. Since I took photos of the rest of the block, it remains to be seen if I can re-edit the street scene with other elements. Please visit my Etsy shop for my artwork for sale inspired by my […]
Meditation Series: Texaco at Lafayette and Bond, NYC (1989) Sketches 1-8
This is the completed panel of my meditations on the Texaco gas station in Manhattan at Lafayette and Bond (according to the mural). The sketches range from a pen and ink realistic image of the original photo, to abstract representations of the visual elements contained in the scene. Please visit my Etsy shop for my […]
Meditation Series: (8/8) Texaco at Lafayette and Bond, NYC (1989)
I incorporated some of the key visual elements in this final variation of the Texaco on Lafayette and Bond Street in the middle of Manhattan. The sax doesn’t take center stage (as maybe it should have), but it is overwhelmed by the colors and forms of the gas station. Please visit my Etsy shop for […]
Meditation Series: (7/8) Texaco at Lafayette and Bond, NYC (1989)
I raised the sax player from the horizontal position and made him a central figure in this sketch. The emissions at this Texaco station are the music from the instrument in this fantasy mural.
