    ordered one french fry, it was hilarious!

    When I was in college in Oregon one of my friends was an amazing artist from Hawaii. Once she went back to Hawaii for a few months and left her paintings with me. I hung them up all over my apartment and felt like I was living in an art gallery. Was wonderful.

      There is no "almost jealous" for me. Steve has a great appreciation for the finest works.
      And that Art curator was correct. Most of Hopper's work is an enigma, painted to evoke an uneasiness and empty feeling.

      Well glad to hear your interpretation.
      That's what good art is all about.
      Are you familiar with the concept of "MA"?

    That period of art.. Hopper, Kent, Bellows represented the clinical depression of the 1940’s. It was the American offshoot from the insipid Impressionists.
    Then thankfully, came Andrew Wyeth who became the classical master that was the paradigm of Germanic culture in his small environment.

    Steve should sway you with how he swindled Teri Garr of a packet of money. He "helped her out" & took a very expensive painting off her hands. She was young & niave about the value of what she owned. She was s struggling actress, needed rent $, and her "buddy" helped her out. He still owns her, (very valuable), painting.
