Lazy-Hazy-Crazy – Sunset, Sunday, 19 July 2015

William Van Doren, LAZY-HAZY-CRAZY. Sunset from Stony Point, Albemarle County, Va. Oil on canvas, 24 x 30.

From the Nat King Cole song, and if this becomes an earworm for anyone, I sincerely apologize. I don’t know about “Lazy,” but “Hazy” definitely applied. Although the sun was nowhere visible in the soupy gray haze, at about 93° (34°), its presence was everywhere felt. As for “Crazy,” I have nothing to say.
