Old Glory acrylic on canvas 24 x 36 inches "Acorn Street, which is pictured in Old Glory, is a narrow lane within Beacon Hill that is paved with cobblestones. It is often mentioned as the most picturesque street in Boston. At twilight, the focal point of the whole street is the flag which literally glows in the dimming light. Elements in the painting are sometimes changed for both metaphoric and aesthetic reasons. The street light on the upper left is not lighted. This I did to keep the eye traveling to the interior of the lane. If it had been lit, it would have shown off all the brick walls around it taking the viewer to that area rather than down the lane to Old Glory." - Rod Chase To inquire about purchasing original paintings by Rod Chase contact Greenhouse Gallery of Fine Art at 800-453-8991 or e-mail info@greenhousegallery.com |
