Stony Point, Albemarle County, Va. Oil on paper, 16 x 20.Rain, and the world in back of the house – the long field leading down to the same arc of woods seen in most of these views – resembling a silvery fogged-up terrarium. Which struck me as funny the moment I thought of it, because what would the earth normally resemble more than a terrarium?
