Station No. 2 12 x 12 soft pastel on prepared wood panel I made a smaller version of this about a year ago and it sold at one of the galleries who display my work. My wife loved it so painted a larger version for her as a Christmas gift 🎅🏻 . . . #softpastel #urbanlandscape #art #blueskyart

@caitlinlarkin.bsky.social I have a favorite Beatles lyric… “You say it’s your birthday! It’s my birthday too yeah!” Every year my twin sister and I call each other up and sing it over the phone.
