'42nd St. Apple'
Big Apple Fest, New York City
2004

In 2004, New York City was animated by the 'Big Apple Fest'. Hundreds of 4 foot fiberglass apples were designed and painted by artists. During this charity event, potential sponsors had the opportunity of selecting individual apple designs from the website.
I painted this sculpture of a 'Big Apple' with some of my favorite landmarks on 42nd Street: the N.Y. Public Library, the Grace Building, the Chrysler Building, the Paramount Building on Times Square....
It was sponsored by Pfizer International Inc. and displayed at their corportate headquarters on 42nd Street.
