Busang’s Richmond

00-august-west-jackson-street-2001.jpg

American realist painter Brett Busang has taken stock of the urban architecture of Richmond for some years now. His late 1990s/early 2000s images of Carver and Jackson Ward caught the neighborhoods at a particular moment and yet are timeless.

IMAGES: August, West Jackson Street, acrylic on canvas, 34 x 38, 2001, detail (ABOVE), Facades, West Jackson Street, acrylic on masonite, 24 x 48, 2001, detail (BELOW)

    We moved to the neighborhood in 2003 after being somewhat familiar with it for years. These paintings capture it’s beauty and dignity even in times of disrepair. Truly wonderful!!!!!
