'Liberty' - 24x36 inches - Abstract Art on Canvas



I've received a number of commissions lately, and this one is one of my favorites- the Statue of Liberty silhouette against the sunset. I used gold highlights for parts of the torch and head-piece.

The green-ish background represents not only the dark waters of the Hudson river, but also the green patina that the statue tends to lend itself to over time, due to corrosion/oxidation.
