Park Avenue, NYC. 2023 by Stephen B. Whatley
A new work by expressionist artist Stephen B. Whatley, inspired by New York and created yesterday on ‘America’s Birthday’, July 4th : “Park Avenue, NYC”.
The charcoal drawing was inspired by a study in graphite that the artist made in the drawing book he carries on travels, on location in New York, absorbing the view, during his recent visit to the USA.
The artist has an abiding affection and fascination with the USA & his press includes the New York Times & TIME magazine; which published his portrait tribute of Barack Obama in 2008.
Many Americans, who make up the majority of Whatley's collectors, discover his work from the permanent art exhibit of the series of 30 paintings he was commissioned to paint for Her Majesty's Tower of London in 2000; reproduced just outside Tower Hill Station as a vibrant walkway of art to the Tower.
