Fisk, 30x40, oil on linen, Ron Donoughe

This one was a struggle to enlarge from a 9x12. I wanted to get the feeling of warm light at the last moments of the day. This location is just around the corner from my studio. The building that is barely visible at the back is the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh, Lawrenceville branch. It was one of his 2,811 free libraries, built in 1898.

I think the sense of last minute light is done quite well- here and in the study. The sky is beautiful.
