Times Square by Joy Skinner

Times Square is the first painting completed in a series called “Americana”. This painting offers a fun, vibrant perspective of Times Tower, New York City. The original watercolor painting is 30×22” and painted on 300 lb arches paper. At the end of the 19th century, New York City had expanded up to 42nd street and the area was becoming the center of the city’s social scene. In 1904, the New York Times built the Times Tower on 43rd street just off Broadway to replace the premises in Downtown. The square facing the building was called the Longacre square, but was soon renamed Times Square.

Unfortunately I never got around to finishing it as I no longer have access to that building. So I improvised with a little Photoshop. / Example of a framed print: /
