Description
I'll never forget I painted this in January when the street was undergoing construction. I went down to take reference photos of the buildings on the street. I remember seeing construction tape everywhere, there was dirty snow lining the empty street on both sides. The structure of the buildings was really the only useful element from the photos I was able to take, even the lighting left a lot to be desired. It was a bleak day, cloudy and pretty colorless. When it came to actually doing the painting, I was trying to think of my favorite time to go to a Sox game- 7:05. It seems like such a perfect time of day in the summertime- still sunny but starting to cool off and I love the way all those elements of red look in that lowering sun.
