This intimate watercolor captures the industrial poetry of DUMBO (Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass), one of Brooklyn's most iconic neighborhoods. The artist masterfully renders a weathered brick wall in a nuanced palette of reds, beiges, and browns, celebrating the textural complexity of the historic architecture that defines this former manufacturing district. The composition is punctuated by a rhythmic grid of glass block windows, their geometric precision contrasting with the organic variations in the surrounding brickwork. A dramatic shadow—cast by an unseen pole and its attached street signs—cuts across the facade, creating a bold silhouette that adds depth to the scene. This painting is part of a series dedicated to DUMBO, a neighborhood that has evolved from an industrial hub to a thriving arts and tech community, known for its cobblestone streets, waterfront views, and historic architecture. The artwork captures the unique blend of old and new that defines this Brooklyn neighborhood, making it a compelling piece for anyone drawn to urban landscapes and the charm of DUMBO.

“DUMBO 24” is a 7×5-inch watercolor completed in December 2018, forming part of a small series celebrating Brooklyn’s Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass (DUMBO) neighborhood. This painting presents a close-up look at a thick, twisted steel fence running horizontally across the lower half of the composition. Rendered in subtle shades of blue and green, the spiral contours of the metal bar evoke its industrial essence, while carefully applied shadows add a striking dimensionality. In the background, a textured brick wall on the left contrasts neatly with a shadowy, muted concrete wall on the right, creating both visual depth and a nod to DUMBO’s gritty, rustic past. By highlighting the interplay of light and shadow, the artwork conveys the tension and harmony between the neighborhood’s industrial legacy and revival spirit.

“DUMBO 19” offers a captivating look into the back view of multiple wooden signs mounted on a post, painted with rich textures and nuanced shadows. Muted, cooler hues enhance the raw grain of the wood, exuding a weathered, rustic motif. Cool-toned accents contrast with warm concrete and turquoise detailing on the supporting pole, adding subtle pops of color to the subdued palette. Together, these elements convey a sense of depth and dimension, melding natural textures with an urban charm characteristic of the DUMBO series.
