I remember staring into a few of the Edward Hopper Posters my mom had up in her classroom
as a child and wondering what it meant. I wondered who those people were, and my imagination began to wander..
I remember seeing Night Hawks, and thinking about the buildings and the people, and just try to understand the narrative of what was going on.
The second poster was much different it was a sea-scape with whimsical waves, and a boat with a vast open sky in every shade of blue. I remember thinking how a person could be in the city and then on the ocean and paint such pictures or scenes giving me two very different moods.
Perhaps not a very interesting thought, but for a very very young kid it made me think.. His work has stuck with me and has always been a favorite.
