East Enders

Link12x16 oil on panel

Ask Russell Collection Fine Art about this painting.

This is looking east on Austin's (in)famous Sixth Street. During the day, if you overlook a bit of dust and grime, the buildings are wonderful examples of "old west" architecture with their builder's names and dates on their facades. At night, its a half mile or more packed with competing music acts and partiers pouring in and out of countless bars. I don't get down there at night anymore, but it could be a lot of fun people watching.

It's great, Robin! Love the colors, and the way you have insinuated detail by brush-strokes of color.

Love your description of east Sixth Street. Your painting is better than the original!
