Chicago Impressionism Skyline
This is oil on canvas. A beautiful view of the Chicago skyline that shows the beauty of Lake Michigan. The reflection of the building lights at dusk highlight the refection of the waters of Lake Michigan. Chicago is a beautiful city on the shores of Lake Michigan, with dramatic world class architecture. It is a creation of man's ingenuity and artistic vision. I enjoy capturing the beauty of this city, I love to explore the city, she is one of my muses. The painting captures the beauty of the architecture, the lake, the lights...the style is meant to capture the unique combination of the lighting of the sunset and the artificial city lights. As Monet's first Impressionistic painting captured the lights of Paris reflecting in the ethereal water, this painting captures the lights of the new millennium city. |
