About This Image

It’s funny how the subway systems of various big cities have a character and flavor all their own. For instance, London has the Tube, Paris has the Metro, and Boston has the T! I’ve been to Boston twice and relied on the T to get me around. I’m not hugely fond of driving anywhere let alone an unfamiliar city. So, the local transit very much forms my experience of a city. And of the different trains lines, it was the green line trains I liked the most. I just loved the retro modern feel of those old subway cars.

During my last visit to Boston, I was staying out in Brookline where the Green Line train runs above ground. It seemed like the perfect chance to capture one of those cool retro trains in action. This colorful Boston print is based off one of those photos, taken as the night skies were turning from dusk blue to the dark black of night. I loved the hint of blue to the skies and the great warm gold light emanating from inside the train car. There’s a really urban feel in the grit of the tracks and the green line train cars.

In the end, it’s the people that breathe light to this green line train print. Look at the variety of people from those waiting to board the train, those already on it, and of course, the train driver. It’s more than a mechanical print of train tracks and cars, it captures a little hum of life in Boston on a winter night.

I can’t help remembering riding the T every time I look at this Boston print. It reminds me of Boston at night and life in the city. I can hear the Green Line stops being announced right now, how about you?

How Can I Help?

At the end of the day, it’s important to me that you can put a face with the art you’re considering purchasing through my site. Aside from the print vendor who ultimately prints and ships your order, this is a one man show. The person who made the art is the same one who is typing this message and the one who will answer your questions if you drop me a note.

You are not a number and I care that you are happy with whatever art you might buy here. I’m here if you’d like to ask questions before or after purchasing. And I’m also happy to work with you where possible to customize the work you’re buying. Maybe you’d like a tweak to the shape of a print to fit in with your existing wall art. Or you’d like to add a little nod to someone special in it? Just ask! I also keep a running list of subjects I don’t currently have but people are seeking. So if you enjoy the style of my work but didn’t find quite what you were looking for, please do let me know.

I’ve been an artist for 15 years now and most of that time it’s been my full-time passion. And it matters to both the endorphins in my brain and the food I put on the table for me (and my cats) that you find the experience of purchasing the products offered here to be a pleasure.
