Some paintings carry a little extra meaning.

Twilight Reflections 2 was commissioned by a longtime friend I’ve known since grade school and high school. Creating artwork for someone you’ve shared decades of memories with makes the process even more rewarding.

The Roebling Suspension Bridge is one of the most recognizable landmarks in Cincinnati, connecting Kentucky and Ohio while standing as a symbol of the city’s history, architecture, and character. For this painting, I wanted to capture the bridge glowing at twilight, with reflections dancing across the Ohio River and the Cincinnati skyline illuminated in the background.

One of the things I enjoy most about commissioned artwork is bringing places that matter to people to life on canvas. Whether it’s a favorite city, a meaningful landmark, or a view connected to a special memory, every painting tells a story.

I’m honored that this piece now has a new home and hope it brings enjoyment for many years to come.
