New York City is known for its diverse population. But its diverse ecology including, beaches, marshes and woods, is not as well known. The south shore of Staten Island had been devastated by Superstorm Sandy in 2012 submerging this tree in over 10’ of seawater. This solitary tree at sundown, wit support in the background, symbolizes the strength and resilient characteristics of the city.
More recently, I painted more scenes of the same area from other reference photos.
