Angular: Shadows



                                                                      Verdigris on the sidewalk 18th Street.

Looking for shadows has become quite a Saturday habit.

A work in progress on Robert's  table

Venetian blinds are a godsend if you need stripes.


                                                                      Windows on 22nd  Street

    Very impressed with Robert's table. At first I thought the top half was painted and the bottom half actual.
    Love the house and leaf shadows one.

    There is something very soothing about shadows isn't there. Also love your pigeon and the matching door! Have a lovely holiday.

    It is because of you that I look for shadows. I have not shown many of my shadow photos...perhaps I should.
    Trust NYC to have fashionista pigeons :)

    Love the top shot and the shadow striped painting. Since I installed a Venetian blind in my work room I feel like Philip Marlowe when the sun shines in.

    Hey Elizabeth,
    Please tell Robert that his painting is looking great. He has a special way with how hew renders people, that is wonderful.
    Also, quite nice to see that your pigeon model wore the right outfit for your photograph!!
    Only in New York.
    ;-)

    Love to you!

    Robert's painting is fantastic! It reminds me of London this week . . . and also Stonehenge, come to think of it. (Throngs of people!)

    Your new header picture is wonderfully dramatic.
