Cathedral Square is a lively, picturesque area of downtown Mobile, with outdoor cafes surrounding a beautiful park that faces the antebellum Cathedral of the Immaculate Conception. This painting depicts people walking through the park, relaxing on park benches, and eating at tables served by a nearby restaurant.

The park area was originally part of Mobile’s 18th century Catholic cemetery. After relocation of the cemetery in 1819, the area was filled with commercial buildings until the city purchased the property in 1979 and it later became a public park.

I enjoy painting with a variety of bold colors, values, and textures to attract the viewer and hold their interest. I love the transparency of watercolor, which allows me to create numerous colorful varieties and effects. Primarily I paint on watercolor canvas, which enhances the brightness and color of my paintings. My subjects are landscapes, city scenes, and local attractions which highlight the traditions and relaxed lifestyle of South Alabama where I live, and scenes in Italy, the land of my ancestors. IMy paintings can be seen at the Cathedral Square Gallery in Mobile, Alabama where I am a resident artist and at several other locations in Alabama and Georgia.
