Two of my favorite watercolors.

From the Staten Island Ferry

Looking back at lower Manhattan and the Brooklyn Bridge from the Staten Island Ferry. There was quite a crowd of people standing on the aft end of the ferry taking pictures. I thought I had a good spot to shoot from, but was soon overrun by camera-clutching tourists pushing me around as everyone jockeyed around for that ‘perfect spot’. A bit crazy, but riding the ferry is a good way to see lower Manhattan and the east channel, downtown Brooklyn, etc.

One of my Favorite

Located on a corner lot this house is one of my favorites. Next time I will get closer to show some of the details.

Urban Bamboo

Planted on a parking strip in NE Portland. Two winters ago, during a snowstorm, this group of bamboo, loaded with ice and snow, were laying horizontal on the street. After the snow and ice melted they bounced back up as though nothing had happened.

Spiders may have been in a hurry or just did sloppy work.

Man and Hammer

On January 28, 2010 By Fred KingIn Art, buildings, Manhattan1 Comment

In Rockefeller Center. This engraving confuses me. Why would the Rockefellers commission an engraving of a guy with a hammer, which seems to represent the working class? Maybe this is a representation of a Greek God that I am not familiar with?
