William Van Doren, CHANGING ALL THE TIME. Sunset from Stony Point, Albemarle County, Va. Oil on canvas, 24 x 30.
Over the course of 40 minutes the sky changed from being filled with rain to clearing out. The painting is based on a sketch I made, the second of three, in the middle of all the changes.
William Van Doren, IN RAIN. Sunset from Stony Point, Albemarle County, Va. Oil on canvas, 24 x 30.
In rain silver, in rain gray, in rain green ground, in rain the river, lost in rain, found, fallen once and twice and twice and twice again from leaf to leaf and down, rain is rain and right to rain and drop a drop and drop and drop around the world round world a world clear round.
