Cityshapes - Fountain

2006

38" x 56", pigment and acrylic on canvas

This painting is part of a series titled Cityshapes: Motion, Body & Soul that were created through a creative collaboration between modern dancer Tiffany Barbarash and I. “Fountain” is based on photographs (a sampling of which is shown below) taken of Tiffany dancing in the fountain located at the intersection of California Street and Market Street. I have to take my hat off to her bravery—she was so cold that afternoon she was visibly shaking!
