ARTIST'S STATEMENT: The inspiration for this painting came from a beautiful day I recently spent photographing Chicago's "Magnificent Mile" (Michigan Avenue). The sun was shining and balmy breezes were blowing off Lake Michigan. It was perfect! This painting may be hung unframed, and a picture wire kit is included for instant display. The style is semi-abstract, and a low gloss varnish has been used to seal the painting. This is a one-of-a-kind original, and my certificate of authenticity will be enclosed. Thanks for looking!
