Vernacular Structures in Marvelous Palette, Unsigned Oil on Masonite Painting forest photo and for what one imagines

and for what one imagines was this woman's pure pleasure in skating

And the two “hooks” are significantly heavier than the rest

with these eyes all over--wide open

I'd guess this large hand-thrown vase dates to the 1960s or early 70s

Vernacular Structures in Marvelous Palette, Unsigned Oil on Masonite Painting forest photo and for what one imaginesI found this one at an antiques show in Bath, Maine last weekend pulled out just as I was leaving, and I snatched it immediately. Unsigned, and artist unknown, but I think quite a terrific and also joyful painting (those roofs looking like bubble gum ice cream!) with the color palette making me think of Philip Guston, and these structures making me think of Holland. Delight in vernacular architecture, wonderful play of color and pattern,
