Union Square Memorial III

Oil on canvas, 30"x36"

This was my third painting of the Union Square memorials and the man in the flag shirt, one of the many people gathering to pay homage in a shared community, symbolized for me what many people were feeling about the recent events surrounding 9/11. I also wanted to do a painting with a lot of people of all races, ages and backgrounds, because that is what New York is made up of and what makes it such a diverse and wonderful city in which to live.
