I've looked in all my art books and can't find it... It's "The Diner" with an image of lookin' into a diner in the middle of the night... There are just a couple people in the diner... One, if my memory serves me is like a James Dean lookin' person??? Hooper??? Of geeze... My brain ain't up to what it used to be... Help!!! Bobert |

From: Micca funny, you just answered a question for me too on the blue Clicky above Wys, someone gave me a copy of "American Gothic" by Grant wood, but I didnt know it was an actual Painting, I thought it was something to do with "The Rocky Horror Picture Show"!!!! |

When I was an undergrad art student, one of the grad students came into my studio and said my work reminded him of Edward Hopper. I didn't know who he was talking about. At that point, my art history classes had only gotten up to Leonardo. They taught art history in a chronological order, starting with prehistory, and I had not reached the recent century yet. My work then was about interiors and neighborhoods where I had grown up and also where I lived as a student. Here is some of my work... judge for yourself. Alice, click |

From: Alice I really like Edward Hopper's work, and I was amazed when I eventually found examples of his work, how the images in my mind and on my canvas had such a similar feeling. I own a beautiful coffee table book of Edward Hopper's art, and Nighthawks is on the cover. |
