The Apartment building is always fascinating to me to see when it is dark . They give a comfort to me, the fact that the windows are full of people just going about their evenings. These paintings were a series I started in November and I wasn't sure where I was going with them. The idea for me was when I walk on a cold night and the windows of the buildings or homes are cozy and warm inside. The end result of these pieces are, to me, a moment in time. It is, as a painter, like creating a doll house with regard to rooms and colors and people. I don’t work from references and I think it makes for a more imaginative end result. Inventing is what is so appealing to me and giving each apartment a story. Like being a writer with paint.
