Celebrating NYC’s iconic
yellow taxis
I had this wonderful vintage pedal taxi in my collection for almost a year, but couldn’t find the spark for a story to tell about it - until one snowy day in New York, the story found me.
In January, 2016, I was visiting Manhattan when a major snowstorm blanketed the region. The snow was remarkable, shutting down the city and airports for days. When the weather finally cleared enough for me to head home, I hailed a cab for the airport.
The cabbie was friendly, chatting the whole time we crawled along the icy roads. He told me how he had a big jar at home where he put all his tips to save a college fund for his children - and just like that, I could see the whole composition for The College Fund, complete with a coin-filled jar.
This painting will be featured in The Rehs Gallery ARC Select Show in NYC, beginning Oct. 22, 2016
The taxi pedal car is from the 1950s - 60s, complete with the logo and fare stickers you see here. The suitcase is one of the vintage, leather-covered jobs from the same time period. (Fun fact: I used this suitcase as a model for the tiny one on top of the station wagon in Grand Vacation.
-
While all big cities have taxis, the yellow cab is part of the very fabric of what makes New York unique. As a nod to this cultural phenomenon, I put an ethereal Manhattan skyline in the upper left of the background, to add just a whisper of the Big Apple for ambiance.
To create the skyline, I first painted it in with dark, black strokes. I then covered it with paint, adding layers until the appearance was hazy and dreamlike.
