MANHOLE COVER AND LEAF by Nancy Herman


MANHOLE COVER AND LEAF
6" x 8"
oil on canvas board

Looking for shadows is usually a matter of looking down.  There is a lot going on under our feet that we don't usually pay much attention to.  I find the various official "stoppers" in the street have plenty of visual interest.  Manhole covers are quite sculptural.  I have to see if they vary from one part of the country to another, or even one part of the city to another, depending on when they were manufactured.  Stay tuned.
