"Night Game at Fenway" - 8 x 8 inches - oil on canvas - SOLD

"Night Game at Fenway" - 8 x 8 inches - oil on canvas
 
This painting is based on a photo that my daughter snapped at a Red Sox game.  The Sox aren't off to a great start this year but they won this particular game with a walk off home so it was a really exciting finish.  

I was inspired by the bright lights and the halo created against the dark sky.  I started with a fluorescent green background that I allowed to shine through at various points.  I always try to keep my brushstrokes loose and fresh and I think I did a pretty good job in this painting.
