This is a painting I did in the Squirrel Hill section of Pittsburgh last summer. The woman reading, second house from left on stoop, shows the scale of these houses. She did not know I painted her in until later. Her husband commissioned the painting because they just love the kid-friendly street. I did it on location over a few days. And yes there were a lot of curious children.
As mentioned on the side bar, my painting, Pittsburgh Winter, won an award at the 100th Annual Associated Artists Exhibition held at the Carnegie Museum of Art. The AAP Annual is the longest running annual exhibition held in a major museum in the United States. I'll be talking about the painting this Sunday from 2:30-3:30 at the museum if you happen to be in town.
