Painting and Drawing

The corner of a wall is seen from an extreme perspective receding from the corner facing the viewer to far away in the distance. The wall has a grey and brown color, with dark, dead vegetation growing along the top. The base of the wall has a bench and meets a ground that has debris and a a brown, uneven texture. This is set against a dark grey sky

An image of the iconic large, green scoreboard at Wrigley Field, painted almost as an abstract shape with a grey, overcast sky behind it and some imagery of rafters in the foreground.
A painting with a single light source shining on a female figure with her back turned toward the viewer and her upper clothing down around her waist. Another female figure is seen in a dark dress standing further in the background, almost concealed in the surrounding darkness. She faces the figure with an almost detached expression.
