Coney Island

Coney Island, mythic center of New York, was little more than run down bars,  rides, ruins and memories when I painted there in the 1990s.  Yet I was drawn back again summer after  summer to paint the remnant of a once  fantastic place.  If you look closely  it is all still there-- in the creaking  roller coaster, boardwalk, fishing  pier and blazing, hazy sun.
