Smith Street Brooklyn
Acrylic on canvas, signed in the lower right corner. Hanging hardware is included.
The inspiration for this painting comes from having lived the Carrol Garden Brooklyn just a few blocks from Smith and Sackett.
The painting is done in a relatively bright, folk-art or naive style with visible brushstrokes.
The painting captures a specific, recognizable urban corner. My slightly simplified, direct style gives the painting a charming, candid, and slightly nostalgic feel. The combination of residential windows with lights on and the closed storefronts suggests it might be depicting the evening or late afternoon, giving the scene a quiet, lived-in energy.
