if a picture is worth a thousand words, a painting then, is either worth none, or more than can be said –

and either count could signify like or dislike

so, i’m not gonna try that 😉

Artist Commentary

“Houston Skyline from Sabine Street Bridge”

hard to realize sometimes this was the scene of many of my childhood explorations growing up in houston, this area of buffalo bayou

two churches i grew up going to, St Stephens and St Josephs, are fairly near by

and the houston skyline, well, from my parents’ home, near white oak bayou and tc jester, the esperson bldg was ’bout the tallest thing we could see from the bridge near our house, and it’s not even visible anymore in this scene

but i love the way the skyline’s evolved – i imagined it being this way one day, but never thought it’d be as grand and to the extent it is now

and still, if one turns 180 degrees, and faces west on this sturdy bridge between allen pkwy and memorial drive, is a vastly cleaned up and beautified portion of houston just bursting to go wild again, if not trimmed and cared for regularly 😉

a good view of this “other view” from the bridge, is in my painting “Houston Buffalo Bayou from Sabine Street Bridge [1]

– the painting itself is much softer (in real life) than i’ve been able to reproduce online; kinda like the people in houston itself
