Piece description from the artist
Standing on the Brooklyn side of the Brooklyn Bridge looking at the view of Manhattan at night is a favorite scene of mine. I captured the features of the bridge and landscape under a bright yellow full moon with bold shades of blue, a violet sky, turquoise water, contrasting lights and the dramatic arch of the bridge itself. I grew up not far from the city of New York and lived there for a couple years, enjoying the city landscape and the huge beautiful cityscape created by that bridge.
