CHICAGO AT SUNSET, CITY LANDSCAPE PAINTING


“CHICAGO AT SUNSET” by Tom Brown
6X6 ORIGINAL OIL
SOLD

Chicago is where I began my art career, and it will always hold a warm spot in my heart. I fondly remember my first one-man gallery show in Chicago, where we sold the entire collection at the opening reception. In this painting we see golden sunlight brushing across two prominent landmarks, the Drake Hotel and the Hancock Center at the upper end of Michigan Avenue. Always a beautiful sight. Enjoy the view!

Today’s thought to smile about:
The view from the top of the Hancock Center

CHICAGO IMPRESSIONIST TONALIST CITY LANDSCAPE PAINTING


“THE WINDY CITY” by Tom Brown
6X6 ORIGINAL OIL
SOLD

I began my art career in Chicago and worked on Michigan Avenue along the Magnificent Mile. The city was alive with energy and a wonderful array of shopping, dining, entertainment and art galleries were all within walking distance or a short cab ride. This painting is for those who love the hum and electricity of the city, with adventure waiting at every corner.
