Original artwork description:

Inspired by the black-and-white images of deteriorating 19th century tenement housing in a documentary on urban history, I added sparse areas of color to make a street scene come to life. To reflect its gritty feeling, I laid on paint with a palette knife and scrubbed it with a dry sponge. (This is a miniature version of the larger piece, "Renewal".)
