Who Will Survive?
Who Will Survive?
In the early days of the pandemic, while walking my dog, Lulu, I came upon this sign plastered on a hydrant. Wanting to document this moment in history, I took a picture. With Photoshop I combined it with other images from the streets of my neighborhood: the puddle with building reflections, the McDonald’s ketchup wrappers and other trash, the rubber glove, tar, and potholes and used the result as reference for my painting. The letters inscribed in the sidewalk are Lulu’s and my initials, but the viewer can also read them as “KILL,” which adds a layer to the story. I use egg tempera, one of the oldest painting techniques, and not one for the impatient artist. Its application is a slow, meditative process of layering quick-drying brushstrokes. Each brushstroke is delicately translucent, revealing to some degree the layers of brushstrokes beneath it.

Summer Evening, Riverside Park
Summer Evening, Riverside Park
Since having the opportunity to show my work at Art on the Corner, I have been inspired to create new paintings of New York City, particularly the Upper West Side neighborhood where I live. In "Summer Evening, Riverside Park," I have tried to convey the magical experience of walking along Riverside as the sky over the Hudson deepens into indigo. The mysterious shadows cast by the enormous elm and oak trees that line the drive merge with the warm yellow illumination of the park's street lamps to make this one of my favorite walks in New York. The photograph on display is one I made in the 1970s, early in my career as an artist, documenting a cityscape come alive with evening activity.

York Avenue and the Tram: View from Sotheby's
York Avenue and the Tram: View from Sotheby's
"View from Straus Park" shows the building where this collage hangs, as well as my building next door. I'm there too, in an upper window. I braved a couple of hot summer afternoons to work on this collage from a park bench.
"York Avenue and the Tram" captures the view south from the café on the top floor of Sotheby's auction house. The Roosevelt Island Tram cuts across the avenue, swinging above it and promising a totally different view of the city when you ride it across the river. I like to include in my collages something of the place where I am working on them: here, lettering from a black Sotheby's bag and the logo from the coffee bar's napkin.

Untitled (2022)
Untitled (2022)
These works mark my joyful return to abstraction--my art's primary focus for more than 30 years--after a period of figurative painting that expressed fear, anxiety, and surrender during the pandemic. These new paintings relate in some way to reflections and light on water or glass or other shiny surfaces, a recurring theme in my art. As a self-taught artist, I have always approached painting intuitively and joyfully and continue to consider it “play” rather than “work.”

How Many Kisses?
NYC Marathoners
I am a native New Yorker, and I've drawn, painted, and illustrated forever, often with New York themes, like the marathon. It's a sea of humanity. I watch clapping, cheering, urging. It is an amazing sight. In this city, there's never a dull moment!
My other work was inspired by Herman Hupfeld's immortal lyrics: "You must remember this / A kiss is just a kiss / A sigh is just a sigh / The fundamental things apply /
As time goes by."

Receding Storm at South Street Seaport
Receding Storm at South Street Seaport
I am Associate Dean for Doctoral Studies at Manhattan School of Music and an avid amateur photographer of all aspects of New York. I took this photo on a trip to South Street Seaport in the late afternoon of a rainy summer day. Just as I arrived, the rain stopped and the storm moved out to the east. The setting sun broke through the clouds behind me, illuminating the buildings across the river in Brooklyn, creating a wonderful contrast between dark and light.

I'm interested in color, light, and space. I worked as a graphic designer, specifically in book design, and always produced art: drawing, printmaking, and, more recently, painting with oils. Painting and drawing force me to pay attention to the world around me and to notice what I might not notice otherwise.

I have been an Upper West Sider for many years and have always found subjects to paint here: people I meet and things I see in the neighborhood. This painting captures the look of a hydrant's finish after years of being used as a spot to sit and rest.

White Plains Road
White Plains Road
I take "photo walks" throughout the five boroughs and beyond, looking for interesting people and street scenes. I use an iPhone to capture images, which I sometimes adjust with Photoshop. Here is a forlorn subway entrance on White Plains Road, in the Bronx. I am drawn to the Bronx because there's a "there" there.
In addition to being a street photographer, I am a musician and digital designer. I played oboe in the U.S. Army Band in Washington, D.C., taught woodwinds at universities in Las Vegas and Greensboro, N.C., play tenor sax in the Big Apple Corps Queer Marching Band, and play cello in the Queer Urban Orchestra. I have worked as an art director and designer for Citibank, Google, and Columbia University.

Late Afternoon, West 111th Street
Late Afternoon, West 111th Street
I’ve lived in Morningside Heights for most of my life and have always been involved with the arts. At various times I've felt moved to photograph some of the places I love and feel deeply attached to: Morningside Park, my street, the view from my window. Although it may not be true that the early evening light in in my neighborhood is more beautiful than the early evening light anywhere else in the city, I think it is; it sometimes transforms views I’ve been looking at for years into images I feel I’ve never seen before.

Far from Heaven
One of the great things about New York is the ever-present possibility of surprise. It is the reason I walk with a camera in my hand: You never know what you may see around the next corner--and I am so glad I don’t know. These two works from my NY Seen series are the result of much walking. I have been taking photos personally and professionally since age 15--60 years ago! My work has appeared in numerous publications and exhibitions and is in the permanent collections of the International Center for Photography and the Magnum Archive. I live in New York City and Highland Lake, N.Y., with my wife, the painter Lola Sandino, and two sweet cats.

Storm Clouds over Columbus Avenue
Summer under the Parkway
My work centers on the juxtaposition of the natural and the manmade environments, revealing the beauty in often overlooked details. I enjoy painting New York's many aspects and moods. Both of these paintings are of the Upper West Side: a view of the Henry Hudson Parkway above an unfinished corner of Riverside Park South, and a view of Columbus Avenue. They are painted in oil on smooth supports, which make it possible to capture subtle changes in color, light, and shadow.
