I love this style of painting, the gorgeous use of colors, and especially the industrial landscapes. Thanks!

These remind me of Edward Hopper.

Lovely stuff. If anybody is lingering from the previous discussions about art, I would argue that these are indeed art. There's a presence there. They're evocative. They're based on photographs, clearly, but they're pretty good. The technique used has a story of its own.

I really want to go to Holland because I'm a keen cyclist, and it looks like a lovely place. I also really like cafe culture. But everybody assumes I want to go to get stoned.

These remind me strongly of Charles Sheeler .
