This painting was my first sell, bought by my older cousin, Kyla Moscovich, 20, trumpet player. She "grew up playing her trumpet at jazz clubs, where she was once heard by Tony Bennett."

So many nostalgic memories made that summer; singing under the shade of trees, the craze over henna tattoos, being crowned the costume ball king (though, without costume), the dainty charm of Fredonia, and the friendship of four special ladies.

This piece won me the Award of Excellence from Award of Excellence in 2012.

The summer of 2011 I attended the Cooper Union Summer Outreach Program and this was the major product of that summer. Besides falling in love.
