Interior Spaces

I've also been working on a series of interiors for a show I'm having later in the year at Gallery Ellipsis in Newport.  One of these paintings is of the People's Cafe on Thames Street in Newport, which I've shown here.  I decided to keep to interiors from Aquidneck Island, which has also included, so far, Jane Pickens Theatre and even Shaws supermarket.  (I'm not a snob when it comes to subject matter!)  I have to admit, though, I do prefer to paint more architecturally interesting subjects, such as Jane Pickens, especially as I'm a bit of a movie fanatic and I love old theatres, but sometimes painting ordinary subjects can make them more interesting, or at least I hope so.
