Boarding at Newark (Original)

22" x 16"

A view of NYC from Newark International Airport. I had just arrived home from a trip abroad and I snapped a picture to paint later. There was a lot of extra fluff I had to edit out to create a reasonable painting, such as the distant cars and luggage dollies. Originally I wanted the sky to be a bit more pale but with the lower horizon line I decided to have more fun with it. I’d say it was a bit damp – several hours after a rain shower.
