It truly is a tribute to Edward Hopper. It truly captures the bleakness of urban life with a hint of humanity.
An excellent piece. ****Stars!

Thought you might also like to know about a film review down in Lambertville called Nickolodeon Nights put on by the Lambertville Library. I think it is a worthy Art Outing, no? It’s ongoing. http://www.njstatelib.org/lfpl/friends/NN/
