Sitting Blue
While we were roadtripping through New England one of our first stops was in Essex, Connecticut. The season was fall and our intention was to take in the wonders of nature, enjoy the fall foilage. In Essex we bought tickets for the Essex Steam Train and Riverboat. When we got to the ticket counter it turned out that the train had been reserved for a private party and not open to the public on that day but since it was just the two of us ( my husband and I) they said they would give us a private car. If you still haven’t figured it out well the private car looked like what you see above. It had this antique feel about it, reminded me of a time when these trains were the means of tranportation, nothing like the trains we have today. And then every once in a while the steam train would let out a tut. It was enchanting. The blue of the chairs so cool, so lush, the sun streaming in. A perfect stop on what turned into a perfect trip.

Sitting Blue belongs to the following groups:
Abstract Realism, aqua, lime or indigo, I ♥ Patterns, Object Studies & Concepts, Out of the Blue (75%+ Blue) and TABLES AND CHAIRS Available for sale asGreeting Cards, Matted Prints, Laminated Prints, Mounted Prints and Framed Prints

Hi Hena, I remember seeing this, was it on the home page as a Feature? I even thought I had commented on it, but I guess not. I would call it classic. Something easy to remember. I love the color of the seats. That’s what drew my eye in the fist place. The lighting is also superb. WHAT A FANTASTIC SHOT!!!
Hena Tayeb replied
thank you so very much. Yes it did make the homepage.. and the fact that you remembered it from there means the world to me. thank you

Stunning in it’s absract simplicity, such a comfortable image to look at (like sliping on an old pair of your favorite shoes) So much repitition, the chairs, the highlights, the shadows and the high key windows all come together to pull the viewer in.
