Dallas at Sunset

In March my son moved to Dallas. His apartment has a wonderful view of the city. While there I took several photos from his studio window and painted a small canvas of the city right at sunset. Only later did I realize that several of the buildings and the ball didn't show up until after dark and as a result I had either left them out or misread their distinctive forms. The top painting incorporates some of the missing buildings. I really liked the cranes in the distance because it shows Dallas as a dynamic, growing city. Also in the top painting I decided to add reflections across the black asphalt roof that extends out below his window.
