Award Winning Local Artist, Michael Feldman, Painting Live to Commemorate America’s Cup Races

Aug. 23, 2012 - PRLog -- America’s Cup is an incredible event.  There is nothing like it on earth.  Combine it with San Francisco and you get something truly special.  The backdrop for the various sailing events and competition includes the Golden Gate Bridge, the downtown San Francisco Skyline, Historic Alcatraz, the Marina Green, Sausalito, Angel Island, the Bay Bridge and Tiburon!

Michael Feldman will be painting live at the Tiburon Art Festival and during America’s Cup World Series finals this weekend at the Waters Edge Hotel on Main Street in Tiburon.  He has created a line of four commemorative works celebrating America’s Cup in San Francisco.  The four paintings include: Defender, Sausalito, Golden Gate and San Francisco.  Each painting captures the essence of the amazing AC45 and AC72 sail boats being raced on the bay while emphasizing some of San Francisco’s most iconic views.  

“I love to paint so working with one of the top rated hotels in the San Francisco Bay area, Waters Edge, in Tiburon, makes this great America’s Cup even better.  I’ll be painting views of Tiburon, San Francisco, Angel Island and Mount Tam while connecting with locals, spectators and patrons of the arts,” commented Michael Feldman.

America’s Cup will bring hundreds of thousands of spectators into the city over the next week.  Michael will be painting live this coming weekend (8/25 & 8/26 10am-5pm) on the Waters Edge Hotel’s front patio on Main Street in downtown Tiburon.  His signed and numbered, limited edition giclee prints on canvas are accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.  Retail prices for prints start at under $100.
