The Hired Help

The joy of having kids never ends.......next up for them, I have some canvas that needs to be stretched and primed...

Chelsea Water Tower - NYC, NY

First stage of underpainting complete.

2nd stage complete on the Red Fox Diner.

The Artkraft Srauss building is being renovated, so I plan on doing 2 more views of it at the 8" x 28" scale to complete the triptych.

Lastly, I have to let my artist pals know about a very short lived deal going on now on ebay. I have been buying $35 tubes of series 4 Winsor Newton cadmium colors from a very nice fellow out of Oregon for $6.50 each. He has been nice enough to throw in extra tubes for free for me, but I don't know how long this deal will last. He is running out of stock quickly and he tells me that he will be offering more in the near future, but at a little higher price. So, act fast!!! The paint is perfectly fine quality (brand new), and I am stocking up now while I can!!! EBAY

This was a commissioned painting for a very good friend whose wife gave it to him as a Christmas gift. It is a view of Pete's Grandfather in front of his restaurant located in County Cavan, Ireland. The building has been knocked down due to eminent domain. Hopefully, this document of the restaurant will get passed down through many generations of Cassidy's........
