The latest work in a series of paintings and drawings inspired by drawings of a favourite view of 6th Avenue, New York City, made on location from the edge of Central Park, Central Park South in 2010 by expressionist artist Stephen B. Whatley .
Amongst the amalgamation of classic and contemporary architecture can be seen Radio City Music Hall & the triangular tip of Bank of America .
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.
In 2004 the artist was honoured to meet the late Queen Elizabeth II and The Duke of Edinburgh at a reception at the Tower of London; in recognition of his work.
See more of Whatley's tributes to New York City in his NYC Art Album here on Flickr and on his website.

Plovia. Havia de ser el meu matí de museus i tocava triar entre Met i MoMA. No sé si vaig fer bé... New York.

"Rain" by Patty Griffin - Listen here!
A cold and sometimes drenching rain in no way dampened the spirits of dancers who came from all over New York City to express their passion for the expression of one's self through dance.

This is a panorama that I took with my iPhone from Hoboken across the Hudson River, edited with Photogene. We are supposed to get a TON of rain this weekend from Tropical Storm Danny, so I am not sure how many HDR opportunities I will get, but I will try my best! Enjoy your weekends friends!!

Located in the heart of Harlem, there is no finer restaurant than Sylvia's. It is known for the famous and not so famous folks that believe the soul food offered here is second to none. We had heard of this place so a group of us stopped in for lunch. I had the ribs, they were to die for and I will surely taste them again on the next trip to NY

The view from the top of the World Trade Centre south tower outside on the observation deck across to the north tower.
I took this photograph on my trip to New York City in May 1996 and It's one of my most treasured possessions. After the events here on September 11th 2001, I look back on my visit to the center as one of the most humbling experiences of my life.
