William Theodore Van Doren. Sunset from Stony Point, Albemarle County, Va. Oil on watercolor block, 16 x 20.
Chilly and damp with low clouds and fog on New Year’s Eve. This completes five entire calendar years of sunset paintings – 1998, 2006, 2007, 2008, 2009 – along with the many sunsets from 1995–1997.
This bumpersticker, sole decoration on a late-model Honda Accord, outsmarted my resistance today with its modest and simple realism.
Something Wonderful is about to Happen.
Happy New Year!
