My home town of Newburyport, MA is a historic city where the famous Clipper Ships originated. There are a number of beautiful brick buildings that have been updated for modern business uses. I happened upon this young lady browsing the shop windows and asked if she'd care to pose. This is the result and I thought that her reflection added further interest to the painting overall.
