I have not been very active with my art lately. My regular work takes all the time. Anyway I managed to finish a few commissioned paintings. Here is one of them with famous fire house on Bowery street in Little Italy, Manhattan.   

CRONUT

Have you heard about cronut? It’s a combination croissant-donut. I took this picture today at 6:06 AM. The bakery open at 9. Limit two per person. Would you stay in line? 

I should paint it one day.  :-)

Lately Ive been doing mostly commission that keeps me busy and happy. Many of them are very interesting, challenging and  rewarding. 
Recently I've started new series of small  8x10 paintings. I haven't done  any new work in large format except of this one. This painting initially had been started as a commission with Old New York scene, but in a process something went not the way I expected and I ended up doing the new painting for that commission.
