The magnetic natural landscape paintings by Simon Parkes are now on view in New York City. Where and for how long?
 
Opened on April 26 and through May 10, the outstanding works by painter Simon Parkes are on view at W.M. Brady & Co. in New York City. Among the artworks included are landscapes, cloudscapes, and still lifes. As founder of Simon Parkes Art Conservation Inc., Parkes spent years restoring paintings and through that sharpening his own skills. In an interview from 2009, the artist said, “I paint feelings, emotional memories, smells, temperature, and sounds … I try to garner an emotional response, which I hope is deeper than simple place recognition.”
