I’ve been awake since 3am today .. is it possible the snow woke me up?? I got up at 4.30, which meant I could start painting early. I enjoyed this painting! I do think something strange has happened to my brain though … I keep looking at everything around me as shapes and colours and thinking about how I might paint it. Even in my sleep.
Working like this (from one side to the other, like a scanner) is strange … I can’t really see what’s developing on the page until I step away. For example, I’ve only just noticed the shadow of the taxi driver’s seatbelt!

Greetings Trudie…Thats how NYC at ground level always looks to me, I’m always stuck in a cab behind another cab..did you paint that from a photo taken inside a limo/cab ? How big is picture?
