"Port of Oakland", abstract oil on canvas painting, Lynne Cunningham


"Port of Oakland", oil on canvas
24" x 36"
completed 3/28/13

$1600.



In the process of painting this one  I had the sensation I was painting something from my memory!  When I lived in the East Bay I saw the Port of Oakland often during daily commutes.   It's a fascinating, very industrial scene at the base of the Bay Bridge in the San Francisco Bay Area.  In the middle of the painting process which took time over several days, the words "Port of Oakland" flashed in my mind ~ the working title of the painting became the final name for the painting. Here is the finished, "Port of Oakland" , 24" x 36", oil paint on canvas with an underdrawing in charcoal.   

Please contact me here  for questions or to purchase; this painting is planned for an early summer group show.
