Hopper House - Members Show

This little watercolor will be my entry in the Edward Hopper House members show. I am dropping it off today. We were encouraged to enter something Hopperesque this year, so I decided on the watercolor of Nobska Light I did back in August.

Update on Today

Well. I measured the painting I planned on putting in the hopper house show and it is too big. I decided at that point to put in a photo... I was going to use one already framed so ... I was back in action. Then I decided to use a different photo I had taken last weekend so I was in the middle of editing that when the 'Better Angels of my Judgement' (feel free to read that as Wenderina) said... "That's nice, but it is for Hopper House it should be one of your paintings... and you have some great paintings that have a hopper feel to them...


So I have firmly made up my mind. Set out to find a painting of the right size that would work. I came across this nice little painting of Nobska Lighthouse on Cape Cod and decided the subject matter was good and the quality of the light if not the colors made me think of Edward Hopper.

Thanks Wenderina... When you're right you're right!
