Learning about art and the artist of yesterday and today is like a wide river of water and I’m a six-foot dry sponge. In 1994 a friend and I flew out of San Francisco at night, and it was the first time I saw city lights stretch out into the vast distance. When I discovered Yvonne Jacquette’s airplane view paintings it instantly drew me back to the San Fran night skyline from above. With just a memory I tried to recreate what I was so impressed by and City Lights began many paintings with the “hot air balloon view”.
