"Mercato"

12 x 7″

oil on panel

I was in the middle of painting this piece earlier in the year and had to put it aside to jump on paintings for a group show and frankly, I forgot about it. I discovered it a few weeks ago in my storage area and decided to finish it.

This was a scene from No. Market Street, in Charleston, South Carolina – just across the street from the Charleston City Market. The restaurant is now closed, but I did see a new French restaurant took it’s place.
