Painted "My Building", acrylic on canvas, during the 1990s, to represent many of the brownstones and classical buildings scattered throughout Brooklyn and the people living in them. Each window is dedicated to a different friend and I'm supposed to be the boy with the kite. It was also exhibited at the CIGE (Chinese International Gallery Exposition), Beijing, 2005. The painting is now part of a private collection in Switzerland.
