About This Image

One of my last nights in New York, friends and I trekked across the Brooklyn Bridge just before dusk for a bite to eat and to see the city lights of Manhattan from a great vantage point! In recent years, an ongoing project began to create Brooklyn Bridge Park, of which the historic Fulton Ferry Pier, pictured here, is a part.

In point of fact, it was only after visiting here that I discovered this Fulton Ferry Landing  is actually an historic spot as well as a great place to spend an evening. This is the site of New York City’s oldest ferry landing. Its history dates back to 1642, and in 1776 Washington was here as he evacuated his men after defeat at Long Island. So, the Fulton Ferry landing is a place with a great view and a rich past!

In this print, I’ve used an original photo of mine as the basis fort this historic Brooklyn landmark artwork. The building with the great tower is today an Ice Cream Factshop ry (a great treat!), but it’s origins are as a 1930’s Fireboat house. I just love how it’s white clapboards contrast with the red brick of the surrounding architecture. It has a very nautical and coastal vibe for a place in the heart of New York City! This print is quite a little slice of Americana, eh?

How Can I Help?

At the end of the day, it’s important to me that you can put a face with the art you’re considering purchasing through my site. Aside from the print vendor who ultimately prints and ships your order, this is a one man show. The person who made the art is the same one who is typing this message and the one who will answer your questions if you drop me a note.

You are not a number and I care that you are happy with whatever art you might buy here. I’m here if you’d like to ask questions before or after purchasing. And I’m also happy to work with you where possible to customize the work you’re buying. Maybe you’d like a tweak to the shape of a print to fit in with your existing wall art. Or you’d like to add a little nod to someone special in it? Just ask! I also keep a running list of subjects I don’t currently have but people are seeking. So if you enjoy the style of my work but didn’t find quite what you were looking for, please do let me know.

I’ve been an artist for 15 years now and most of that time it’s been my full-time passion. And it matters to both the endorphins in my brain and the food I put on the table for me (and my cats) that you find the experience of purchasing the products offered here to be a pleasure.
