Artists Registry

I did an art lesson with my students on Rene Magritte, the Surrealist Artist. We were inspired by his work, The False Mirror, to created an image of our own framed by the shape of an eye. When I went to NYC for the first time since 9/11 in December of 2009 and visited the site of the WTC, I was very moved and I wanted to create a personal tribute to the people we lost on 9/11. My painting shows the Brooklyn Bridge with NYC in the background; the memorial lights shine like golden beacons up into the night sky. A teardrop falls from the eye, reminding us that we shall never forget...
