A painting of a fence, a sidewalk, and a building on Carroll Street in Brooklyn, near Fourth Avenue. This is actually a view of what it looked like over six years ago, even though I completed the painting today. Google Street View of this spot goes back to June, 2009, with several iterations since then. A plywood fence was present from at least 2011 to at least 2014. The most interesting thing for me is how the temporary plywood fence changed over this several year period, going through several paint colors, graffiti, and different signage. This view is from April, 2013. It's not just the buildings that change over time, but even the temporary structures. 9x12 oil on linen panel.
