Every picture tells a story. Part 2. This is a painting of the magnolia trees in full bloom on Oxford Street near Park Avenue in Rochester that will hang at my featured artist show Street Artworks My first apartment was on Park Avenue near there, so I have a lot of affection for this neighborhood. I had taken many photos for this painting but couldn't get quite right. Then I found a vintage postcard with this wonderful vanishing point, so I was inspired to use a vintage color palette. It's a LARGE painting, which was also fun.
