Edward Hopper Edward Hopper

above is Hopper's Pennsylvania Coal Town which I had
the privilege of seeing at The Farnsworth Museum ..long ago
and below is my photo of West Main Light



I may yet paint this place I pass in town and have photo'd under various conditions---when I see it with the shadow shapes, all I can think of is Edward Hopper, Edward Hopper, Edward Hopper----and a Maine artist, Murad Sayen----I share this shadow fascination with---what good company, eh wot?
