Acrylic on paper. Painted space 15″ × 22″. Framed 22″ × 29″. 2003.
I lived in Bermuda. I painted this in Roswell, Georgia, about two years after we moved away.
It is not a painting of something I was standing in front of. I worked from a photo of a real street somewhere on the island. The place is real. The color is not. I made that up.
That was deliberate. Bermuda was a lively place to live, bright and busy and full of exciting things going on, and that is what I wanted the painting to carry. Not a record of how anything actually looked.
This is the first of three Bermuda paintings I made. The other two are still in the archive.
Signed and dated on the painting: 5/3/03. Photographed for archival in January 2026. First time it has been shared.
