Beginnings with Edward Hopper (July 22, 1882 – May 15, 1967)


Hi there. Welcome to the blog. So, you may be wondering, what is it all about? What's the point? the purpose? the goal? Well, being an art lover, my plan is to post, every day, the works of one great artist. That means that, on here, you should daily discover something new or fondly revisit something old. Pretty straightforward, huh? 

Anyway, without further ado, let's jump off with a favorite of mine, Edward Hopper: 

Ground Swell
1939

Cape Cod Evening
1939

The Mansard Roof
1923

By the way, suggestions, criticisms, compliments and soliloquies are always welcome. A hi is also appreciated.
