Chicago Skyline at Sunset

An original oil painting of the Chicago skyline at sunset, painted entirely with a palette knife on canvas.

The sky is the heart of this piece — crimson, magenta, orange and gold clouds breaking across a deep violet-blue evening, with long rays of light stretching over the city. Below, the towers rise in blues, reds, emeralds and purples, and the lakefront water carries all of it back in broken strokes of color.

Thick, layered paint applied straight from the knife gives the surface a real texture you can see from across a room. Professional oils on stretched canvas, signed by the artist.
