Oil on Canvas - 2009

Saint Paul, Minnesota’s capital city, is known as the City of Neighborhoods.  Within the Summit Hill and Macalaster - Groveland neighborhoods is Grand Avenue.  Several miles in length Grand Avenue is the premier shopping district in Saint Paul.  Many fine restaurants, eateries, coffee houses and shops call this avenue home.  This painting captures a view of Grand near Lexington Parkway while the day’s last light illuminates the eastern sky and street lamps

begin to burn bright for the coming night.
