"Lyon's Deco Doorway" SOLD

Oil, 10 x 8" stretched canvas

Lyon's Indian Store in downtown Tulsa inhabits one of our Deco treasures: the Warehouse Market Building. This little oil on 10 x 8" stretched canvas focuses on its beautiful, colorful deco facade. Based on a photo I took early one morning a couple of weeks ago, it was hard to decide how much of the building to show. I decided just to focus on that dynamic doorway surrounded by the blue cobalt tiles. What a site!

Be sure to take time to study this example of deco architecture at its finest.

I love your take on this. This building is my favorite art deco example in Tulsa. Smart composition, rather than painting the building you focused on the entry.
