2005: Sketches And Side Studies For "La Mer".










Sketches for a large watercolor piece called "La Mer". Oceanfront. Asbury Park Casino. Howard Johnson's. Railroad crossings. Red lights. The Sacred Heart. Mourning doves. A badge. A spy's binoculars. A dinner table. Convention Hall's marquee. The now-defunct Palace Amusements "Tillie" character. Some things are abandoned. Some things are broken. Some things are under surveillance....even after they have been burned out. 2005.
