Big City Dreams

The Marcus Ashley Gallery is a worthy addition to a bucket list of places to visit in Lake Tahoe. This grand brick-and-mortar structure is the culmination of the patrons’ passion for the arts and is held in high regard by the art community for its commendable collections. You’ll also find that Michael Flohr art graces the walkways of this fine establishment.

New York goes by several identifiable monikers such as the Big Apple, The City that Never Sleeps, and Gotham. Big City Dreams underscores the artist’s soft spot for the metropolis, and Flohr relies on rich hues of amber, violet, tangerine, midnight blue, and mustard yellow to depict midtown Manhattan. The iconic Radio City Music Hall glows through the rainy haze as excited people shuffle towards the doors to catch the next show.

Swirling and flicked brushstrokes create an intoxicating energy in Big City Dreams. Flohr doesn’t shy away from going bold and big with his depiction of New York. Even if you’ve never been to this city, you’ll find yourself drawn to the rain-swept streets of Manhattan.
